"E-town Concrete have always been a band i enjoy listening to often. Great diversity, good musicianship. Powerful vocals. Technical drums that never get boring. I've noticed that people call them rap metal or rap/rock. Wrong... If anything is rap/rock, it's Linkin Park. There's no real metal in Linkin Park. E-Town Concrete are influenced mainly by the New Jersey Hardcore/Metalcore scene and hip-hop like Nas, Tupac, etc. They're one of the only bands that blend hip-hop with hardcore or metal and actually do all genres justice. E-town Concrete murder weak bands like Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit. They're also a better listen than Candiria, another band that does both genres justice. If you're into hip-hop or hardcore/metalcore at all pick this up, along with the others. If you're more of a hip-hop fan start off with their latest release "Renaissance". It's less of a metalcore feel than their earlier stuff. E-Town Concrete is truly a great listen, beautiful, emotional, and extremely powerful. Highly recommended...peace......"

"Times 2 $hine is by far their best album. They started this hole yo-core deal along with Dog Eat Dog and New School (check em out if possible) back in the good ole days when there wasn't no crappy yo-core out there like now. Raw energy, unmasked emotions, everything u want in some hard hittin music wit some tight rhymes sliced in2 the deal. U can't go wrong wit dis album n the rest of em. I'm origionally from northeasrtern PA n they played shows round the area alot and damn do they put on a good show. If u ever have the chance check em out. They definetly got their own sound 2 them which makes em ever better. No band I've ever heard got power, emotion, n skills like the ETC crew. The only other band I could think of that is even near ETC is maybe Ill Nino's first album or Slipknot."

"One of my favorite albums.This band is the perfect fusion of hip hop and metal...i like call it crossover.
When in "just watch a step" i heard the drums and the bass followed by anthony powerfull voice i can only say...Thy are the most original band in the world. I think Adam is a sort of scrub who listens albums ance and think he can judge...Hide YOURSRLF ADAM!!!!"
