"Holy smokin’ weed, Batman! This band sounds almost like what we would have had if Stevie Ray Vaughan did heavy bluesy doom metal instead of straight blues. The guitaring on this album is just fucking incredible in parts. The bass and drums are not left behind though. Hell no. Planetfall, my friends, is a full effort by everyone involved, and very much worth your time and money.." --The Fuzz of Doom

"The album's opening piece and title track is a massive flood of instrumental space/stoner rock heaviness, comprised of groovy riffs and established in a psychedelic setting full of fuzz, fortitude and cosmic mystery. The stellar track epitomizes the band's spirit and their resonant take on stoner rock." --Destroy/Exist
