    "Like it or not, French men are often associated with being on the more effeminate side of things, but Amanda Woodward do not slow down long enough to offer a single example of such wimpery. No, these songs are not long, epic passages; theyre short, passionate bursts of energy that convey the band's sociopolitical message in radical form. Post-rock instrumental passages, chaotic screaming, thundering guitars, and its tied together with a social and political message all their own."

    "The impact of Amanda Woodward's set was comparable to the excitement I felt unearthing punk rock for the first time... and on La Decadence de la Decadence the listener continuously gets stung by melodic guitar lashes, swirling reverberation, screams of desperation and anguish, and hard-driving dynamics that will ricochet in your head well after the needle stops. With their newest offering, punk rock has never sounded so alive, and the French language has never sounded so cool."

    "Even though it is full of the usual epic swells and twinkling spacey melodic breakdowns that define the instrument-driven post-hardcore genre, Aussitot Mort's music takes the listener beyond the realms of the 100s of similar sounding bands currently playing this style.The format is more creative, the notes a little more daring and expansive. This is a fresh sound midst a field swollen with nearly one hundred other bands all roaring and thundering on the same structures and principles. Each song on this EP feels like its nine minutes long, yet none of them breach five. The runs are all simple but clever and the riffing is large and weighty. There is just a depth to this release that reminds me of what makes Envy so unique. There is a huge quality to the music that defies a simple definition- it’s like seeing the fin of a huge shark peak above the water; you know the beast is there and that jagged hint is more than enough to scare you ****less."

    You should know what the story is by now. Four lads from Glenroe making original, passionate and cliche free hardcore/punk/rock. Their debut LP Grey, Black, Grey is one of the best records to have ever come out of the Irish underground.
