Reviews"AMPUTECHTURE again revels in overkill: fever-pitched vocals, orchestral fanfares, Latin percussion solos, even an acoustic Spanish interlude." -- Grade: B, 3 stars out of 5 -- "Omar Rodriguez-Lopez scales back, relatively speaking, and rediscovers the crucial difference between prog nirvana and prog indulgence.", "They Deeply, Rapturously Feel Every Long-Winded, Loony Lick.", Ranked #19 in Kerrang's "20 Greatest Albums of 2006" -- "Left-field esoterica and constantly mutating space rock jams.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Three songs here exceed ten minutes and are crammed with quantum-physics-level time signatures, battle-to-the-death jousts between guitar and horns and Bixler-Zavala's hummingbird keening.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "Another 76-minute suite of apocrypha, endlessly contorting melodies, psychedelic curlicues...and general hysteria..."
