" For devotees on either side, Too Punk for the Hardcore Show, Too Hardcore for the Punk Show rings out like a breath of fresh air, a herald of a possible new direction for either sound. At the very least, the Attack make us realize that there’s more in common than divergent between traditional punk rock and hardcore." - mxdwn.com
