"Complex and hard as nails, Exit the King make difficult math-metal multiplied by extreme volume. Known for mercifully short sets, these former Suburban Terror Project members have been making a name for themselves with a series of devastating, disorienting sets over the last year." --Yaris-SXSW.com
"Next, Exit the King played its first show. The 3-piece floored the audience, taking a vicious bite out of all that shreds with technicality. They were the highlight of the show and delivered unhinged, yet witty spazz-metal meshups. Imagine an organized collision of helicopters turned to 11. Hook 'em, do the math, and beware." --Whoopsy!
"When they all come together [...] you can see how impressive the entire package is. Unlike many of their peers, they have a sense of dynamics, dropping instruments in and out, chinging time and tempos, never missing a beat anywhere." --97.1FM KVRX
"One of the joys of SXSW is walking around the 200-plus venues and having something catch your ear. It took 24 minutes for this to happen, when the organized noise of Exit the King was erupting from a tent. As if thrash metal and John Coltrane got in a head-on collision, the Austin-based group is a demanding, almost psychotic listen, but certainly talented." --Nick Brandon, GO & DO Michigan
