“Album Of The Month.” –Aardschok

“… the guitar work is off the charts…. Even if these dudes never record anything else together, with this debut they will have succeeded where many other famous musicians have failed by creating an off-the-cuff album with a brand-new lineup that sounds like it was years in the making.” – Decibel Magazine

“…those of us that love to be battered into submission by thunderous heavy metal, the strength and charm of this new five-man force is hard to dispute.” – Blabbermouth

“…a ferocious blend of power metal, groove, and thrash. Each song is jam-packed with exciting rhythmic pleasure, fills, and riffs. There is so much going on that it sounds like an assault on the ears without being overly indulgent.” – This Day In Metal

“With the opener ‘In Stitches,’ CATEGORY 7 makes it clear that this is not just any old band project, but a perfectly coordinated ensemble that has brought all its experience to songwriting…. This is, by and large, truly untouchable.” — Powermetal.de

“…here are five great metal musicians challenging themselves and each other to do something different to their usual. And every note on every song radiates that positive energy. It‘s the metal equivalent of going to do karate in the garage with your brother. No doubt they‘ll be busy with their other bands but CATEGORY 7 have the tunes to match their supergroup status.” — Wall Of Sound

“The songs are melodic, catchy, and built around the always wonderful vocals of John Bush, (Armored Saint/ex-Anthrax). Around these are arranged a collection of compelling riffs, fiery guitar solos, and impressive drumming… CATEGORY 7 is easy to like if you‘ve been raised on ’90s metal with ’80s influences thrown in… an enjoyable album that‘s full of solid songs.” — Wonderbox Metal
