“Strong melodicism and strength - but via grace - not to mention homogenized eclecticism, well blended fusion, combine to make On A Dead Machine a strong independent effort.” ~ Fishcomcollective.net

“…an album that instantly had me hooked from the first listen and like the previous EPs had me hitting repeat straight away for another listen.

“I think this band are bloody great and this album lives up to everything I was hoping for and expecting.

“Let’s hope that someone from a bigger label sees what I and others see and hear in this band and give them a deal so that they can spread their music even further.” ~ Pyromusic.net (Australia)

“On A Dead Machine is an awesome band that makes amazing music that falls into almost every rock genre that is popular today. They are passionate yet creative songwriters who have fallen under the radar of major record labels for too long. They mix simple, stunning melodies with beautiful singing that is darkened by metalcore screams. They never shy away from making the music that they feel will move people and influence bands in the future. If I have to classify them in a genre I would have to say they fall under the realm of great music and if I have to compare them to another band the only band I can compare them to is themselves.” ~ The Music Appraisal

“Seriously, idealistic principles aside, this band should absolutely be on a major label, or least an indie that's flirting with that mainstream base, because these guys are great songwriters that, in my opinion, could easily succeed in that realm.

“this is a really strong record that still leaves me wanting to hear more from the band.

I'm really into this, and like I said, I wholeheartedly believe that On a Dead Machine would be incredibly well served to find a home on a label with some suitable resources to lend them a hand. Be on the lookout for these guys…” ~ Aversionline

“I think they’re an amazing outfit that’s got nowhere to go but straight up the charts. Melodic catchy hooks are brought immediately to everyone’s attention and then in swoops the dramatic guitar riffs that encapsulate the dynamic vocals that range from screamo to harmonious.” ~ Smother.net

“Their sound manages to sound big and yet really isn't too layered, no obvious overdubs or keyboards/samples, just a guitar/bass drums and singer for the most part. When you don't have a thousand things hitting the listener at the same time, your songs better be strong (which they are), because you can't distract them with complexity.” ~ Soul Killer

“Spellbinding… Music this raw and alive could never be generated by an inhuman device and so ultimately its proven that any machine here is well and truly dead.” ~ IAYM

"3 ½ out of 4 stars… …another band of undeniable power and promise. This is invigorating, challenging stuff, among the best metal to be heard… Let's wake up the world if you're so innocent/And break it apart with your style," goes the song "The Morning After..." This is one band that just may do it, too.” ~ The Commercial Appeal

“…haunting tunes that just seem to flow over you. Can’t say I’ve heard a band like this, I’m very glad I had the opportunity to hear them.” ~ Audiocratic (UK)

“On A Dead Machine is inventing not only a new way of making music, but a whole new way of listening to it.” ~ Memphis Mayhem

“Memphis' On a Dead Machine are a band that is successfully keeping the alternative-metal partnership alive. This band could really go any direction that they are told to. If you like alternative-metal at all, here's a new fresh band for you that is in the same boat as Dredg, Kaddisfly, Dualesc, All Parallels, and others.” ~ Indulged

“I have no doubt these guys will be picked up sooner rather than later and they should be if the music world has any sense. ~ Primal Agony (Australia)

“Probably some of the most melodic metal to come out of the relatively vital Memphis scene in a few years, these guys send thoughtful-yet-massive rock power rushing through your speakers and in your face” ~ FAC193.com

“A-” ~ Amusica
