"A very well composed album. Nivek Ogre and Martin Atkins have been making great music for many years and this album is definitly not a downer. Ogre's vocal styling has shown a lot of growth on this record. His voice seems more defined than it does on some of his other work, and he actually sings. Martin Atkins' drumming is amazing as always. It's a wonderfull piece of art and I highly recommend it."
Damn fine album

"It lacks the depth and layering of skinny puppy, and some of the tracks are a bit weak, but overall a very good album. The last half of the album is probably the weaker part, which is a bit of a downer since it diminishes your desire to listen to the album as a whole.So, I'd give it 4.2 stars. Oh yah, and the decision to open with Scarecrow is pure genius."
Sheer maddening genius

"This is great. Weird stuff that makes me feel like I'm on various prescription drugs. If you like this, try The Damage Manual, which isn't quite as strange but definitely has a bit of that too-many-pills feel."
Ogre and Atkins exploring realms beyond us.

"Using a full scale attack on the senses this long awaited album fills every bill. Funny, the comparison one can draw between Ogre and Barret, both musical geniuses, both incredibly shattered landscapes that leave us everything on their art. This album is a mind blower, puppy heads don't miss it or anyone else who has a taste for the Industrial obscure."
And when u feel the dirt.. i will wash my hands.

"We waited long. We watied patienly. We dreamed. We knew that someday it would come. And then at last came a thing of beauty far more powerful then we could have ever imagined. Bedside Toxicology stands alone.. Ogre proves his lyrical genius once again.. Martin Atkins takes us halfway to heaven providing the perfect sonic enviroment for Ogre's less chaotic lyrics.. Even Bagman lends a helping hand.. And to top it all off a very worthy tribute to a man who should be a hero to us all, Syd Barrett."
