Blistering Heavy Metal and Hard Rock Magazine

[Misery Signals] “The fact is that we are a band that has metal parts. And we have hardcore parts. And we have rock parts. And we have tech parts. And we have mosh parts. And we have melody parts… and the list goes on. So, you know, if you can really place all of that into this one genre called ‘metalcore,' then so be it. As far as this new record goes, though, we just wrote it as something that we all enjoy and we can just hope that kids will feel the same way. It’s just the Misery Signals sound.” - Kyle Johnson

Every note they struck turned to gold and the crowd ate up what they served like nectar and ambrosia. High On Fire needn’t worry about being dethroned from their top position as best currently active stoner rock band anytime soon, but The Sword is definitely knocking on the gates of Valhalla…loudly.

[Septicflesh] Already getting rave reviews from the Euro press, Blistering will follow suit and dub this an instant entry into discussion of 2008’s best albums. Fact of the matter is, Communion is in a league all its own – the perfect and righteous combination of the symphonic black metal and dark metal worlds, wrapped up beautifully in an exotic Greek metal package. Credit not only the band’s intuition, but their locale as well – there is some seriously heavy and moving stuff coming from this album...
