"I remember the first track I heard off this album -- King of the Monsters -- and my reaction at the time: "Holy [expicitive]! This is the best thing I've ever heard!" I ordered the album at that moment and waited anxiously for its arrival.When it finally came, I popped it into the changer with reckless abandon. A track called "Television Fission" came on, and it was the aural equivalent of losing one's virginity -- it's that damn good. I cannot even describe these tracks in words, for it would never do them justice. Listen to the sound clips and hear it for yourself. This is _the_ definitive Man or Astroman album.I consider this album to be one of the best out of any that uses a guitar, and it has made me an Astroman fan for life."

Sleeper band of the 90s

"Look, simply put, MOAM was a band that was always ahead of the curve. They played traditional surf WAY before Pulp Fiction came out and popularized it. Many of the (now) signature sounds in a lot of emo and (dare I say it?) "hardcore" were pioneered by MOAM in their last three albums.

Experiment Zero was the nice middle ground between these periods.

Personally, I consider it to be their best work."
