Marcus Jervis (Powerplay Magazine UK) 9/10


“Much more than mere thrash metal these guys are joy to listen to, simply because they seem to have such a great under-standing of what they want to do and how to do it. These guys are the real deal, great guitar solos and some top notch bass lines.. let the music consume you, this is not your average thrash band, it chews you up then spits you out.”

“A debut album from a very promising band. Synaptik understands what fans of True Metal adore a band that follows their own path, they really have the talent & guts to play Metal like this”.
Metal to Infinity 8.5/10
