A review for ‘Selva’ from 'Gothic Crypt':
“A magnificent specimen of atmospheric dark rock music that transcends boundaries. Nephilimesque guitar playing, Katatonia's melancholic gloominess and the ethereal ambience of Dead Can Dance, all entwined in a musical opus that is "Gothic" in its essence, as in dark, imposing, timeless. Gothic Crypt approves.”
