Meek Is Murder is adept in the fundamentals of songwriting, building upon the blending of relentless pummeling and tempered melody. - Metal Underground

“Return Void” opens with total aggression. Heavy and complex riffing, thundering drums and vicious vocals. This track is very reminiscent of bands like Daughters and The Dillinger Escape Plan. This is 44 seconds of pure adrenaline and I love it. This album is kicking my ass already. - American Aftermath

Meek is Murder (guitarist Mike Keller (ex-The Red Chord), drummer Frank Godla (Empyreon, Dividing Light) and bassist Sam Brodsky) kicks balls in a similar way to those scream-smart Tacoma kids. They play like their instruments are on fire — hard, fast, brutal, getting in and getting out before they burn themselves with their ridiculous awesomeness. - Decibel

Punkish experimental grind that evolves into epic, elegiac rock, every second of which is delectable… - MetalSucks
