"How 8 bit should be... or rather a shining example that 8bit doesnt have to be some scenester hipsters vehicle to get pussy."

— Christopher Will, Tooth Eye

"Army of 2600 will be forever one of my favorite noise/experimental bands. I love the whole atari noise thing, it's great, not one release is disappointing."

— @mrfish1961, youtube.com

"You are musical genius, my friend. More and more people are catching on."

— Big Al, Big Al Band

“Harnessing the myriad of dark sounds and textures eminating from his black plastic box, "Army of 2600 crafts shadowy soundscapes, reminiscent of system glitches and lost transmissions. Drawing upon everything from outer space to John Carpenter soundtracks for inspiration, this release is one for all the hardcore bleepheads out there."”

— Pterodactyl Squad Records

"Lando Rap is so hard...like Beastie Boys meet acid."

— Matt Kennedy, Moralton Eggtrade

"Dude! You're like the Rob Zombie of the Atari 2600! Fuck Yeah!"

— Atari Music Network

"Army of 2600 shoots in panorama, envisioning cinematic 8-bit soundtracks to alien invasion movies, like Hans Zimmer scoring The Terminator with a symphony of Atari cartridges."

— redchapterjubilee, 979represent.com

"Army of 2600 is the sound of a broken game cartridge in protest, spitting out white noise, menacing beats and ominous atmosphere while the CGI scions of darkness march across your television screen. This is how you rewrite the soundtrack for The Terminator as realized for the Atari 2600."

— Records and SHTI, SinkHole Texas Inc

"Atari noises orchestrated to form a soundtrack for travelling through a 1980s sci-fi wasteland, Bit Attrition is dreary with droning and video game moaning as robots march to future war. The overall sound of Army Of 2600 leans more on the noisy pulse pounding soundscape side of Atari synthcart music and manages to steer clear of the typical happy, upbeat, dancey side that usually comes with the territory."

— Kaye Rottingham, Which Way to the Beats
