“…the five-piece band Skatar (Icelandic for “scout”) wore white biochemical-warrior jumpsuits and played a fast jagged math rock, as if Devo had made it halfway to turning into the Pixies, only to take a hard left turn into early-Eighties King Crimson.” – David Fricke (Rolling Stone Magazine)

“Expansive and wonderfully ambitious, but Skátar know just when to rein it in.” – Thom Gibbs (Plan B Magazine)

“It is not the most accessible CD the first time around, but the quirkiness grows on you.” – The Reykjavík Grapevine

“The jagged beats were just as hooky as the deceptively catchy melodies. Undeniably, the band thrived on their intensity. Propulsive riffs and shouts blasted out at the crowd. You wouldn’t know that the band had just recently started up again, moving fiercely and intently with the drive of a band invigorated a newfound inspiration.” – Dusty Henry (KEXP.ORG)
