Highly recommended.

Xetas, out of Austin, make an unholy racket, a noisy, feedback blurred firehose spray of sound that does not quite obscure a tendency towards tunefulness. There is plenty of pummel and turmoil and fast-slash aggression.

“The Hierophant” (possibly a holdover from the Tarot album) blares rumbling bass driven roar like Burma or Shellac, spiked and heavy. “The Xero” jacks speed and noise and battling shouts to warp speed like a mixed gender Minor Threat. In sum, the loud, distorted, cathartic parts of Xetas are as body-churning as ever, and if you love punk rock, you’re going to want The Cypher. It’s just that now they’ve also written a couple of hits." - Jennifer Kelly (Dusted)

"“somewhere between uptempo post-punk (“The Teacher” could easily have been a lost track from Mission Of Burma’s “Forget” compilation), and savage screamo-what-have-you lies an exceptionally well-done album from Xetas.” (HEX)
