A great start for an American industrial band

"Imperative Reaction combines the depressing lyrics of American industrial bands (Skinny Puppy, Nine Inch Nails, and Praga Khan) with the inspired, organized, and atmospheric electronic music of European industrial bands. Eulogy has some great tracks on it (Scorpio, The Longing, Overcast), while some just seem like fillers. Overall, I think this a great debut release for Imperative Reaction, and that they should be commended for implementing the more European style to their sound."
Simply Awesome - My Newest Favorite Band!

"I buy a lot of EBM and industrial music and this album is by far my newest favorite for the year. I love industrial dance of this quality and every track on the album is strong. The music is complex with simple melodies layered into delicately harsh vocals and strong industrial dance-beats, and yet sustain excellent musical form. I was quite surprised to discover the band is based in the US because I would expect the sound to come out of Belgium or Germany. The closest bands I can relate them to are all on Metropolis - Wumpscut, Informatik, Decoded Feedback, etc."
