[edit] In Brief
"Every number is a testament to the might and stamina of the power chord." -Las Vegas Weekly
"They have the amusing habit -- check out "Ski Hat," "Dope (Part 2)," and especially "$#@?!!" -- of riffing straight through what would usually be a song's first couple of verses, throwing in a few lines of debauched lyrics, then cutting the whole thing off around the two-minute mark. It's these controlled doses of alcoholic incoherency, along with more traditional barn burners like "Too Much Is Never Enough," that make Retarder a keeper." -The Boston Phoenix
