“One of the biggest surprises of the day was the festivals opening act and winners of the stops battle of the bands winner Sky Came Burning. The band from Baltimore, MD took on the responsibilities of warming up a rock ready crowd pumped up for a long day of music and events. Opening with their self titled song "Sky came burning", they rocked the crowd and from the start of song one had them hooked. Between the dueling vocals of frontmen Christopher Duval and David Strand, the very skilled guitarist Jeff Lane, the extra talented drumming of Randall James, and the heavy bass of Jeremy Cavey it is clear that Sky Came Burning has a very bright future ahead of them. The Band had one of the days largest crowds and was even approached by Sevendust Frontman Lajon Witherspoon, who asked the band for a cd and t-shirt and issued an invite to "hang out".”

— Joe Noyes, From Inside the Pit

“SKY CAME BURNING were fucking tremendous on stage, and were the most lively and entertaining to watch. Blending hard rock, metal, hardcore, and more, SKY CAME BURNING played some ferocious tracks on stage that really blew me away. Both vocalists were all over the stage, jumping around, making faces, going ape shit — obviously enjoying themselves greatly. It was very fun to watch. Not only that, their guitarist, Jeff Lane, was a beast on his axe (whether it was during one of his awesome solos or not).”

— Nathaniel Lay, Lexington Music Press

“Finely tuned, musical prowess with the punch of a wrecking ball is how I'd describe these guys. A diverse and talented mix of great musicianship, good lyrics, and the all out energy of their live show combined make SCB our band of the month. This music is not for the weak... See you in the pitt!”

— Vince Anderson, Shockwave Magazine

“Featuring such classics like EVERY MINUTE CAN KILL’s “Purpose”, NO BRAGGING RIGHTS’ “The Prospect”, THE TWIN’s “Victims”, and WITHIN WOLVES’ “Biting the Hand That Feeds”, this compilation does a good job in picking out some recent trail blazers. However, it’s the never before heard bands that will attract the listener most. After all, this is a compilation meant to show you locals deserving of attention, the best being CAMISADO, BURIED IN VERONA, LAKEVIEW, SKY CAME BURNING, and LOOKOUTBELOW!. Considering most compilations these days consist of “old news” songs or just crappy artists (Warped Tour compilations have really become useless these days), Fans 4 Bands really stepped up to show other companies how it is done.”

— Nathaniel Lay, Lexington Music Press

“If there was any opposition tonight it was smashed in the pit and by the aural assault coming from the stage as SCB bombarded the audience with their brand of Metal-core. The band’s live show sound equals the sound from their latest five song ep and, as with the bands first demo it leaves me wanting more. Vocalist Chris (Duval) really can recreate the searing vocals from their self titled song Sky Came Burning, all I can say is Wow. If you stumble across this band’s CD or live show like I did and, if you love metal that will not only pummel you like an over-sized hand up side your noggin, then Sky Came Burning is for you. Don’t sleep on these guys like I did when they first handed me their demo and I left it lying on my desk, what a mistake. I finally saw the guys live, and the energy and raw talent and brutality they deliver will have these guys making an impression on you and the metal world, like a freight train hitting a brick wall.”

— Mike Rocha, Shockwave Magazine

“However, with the release of The Opposition, the perception of “local” is transformed to a death-grip of excitement. There is just something about this release that really creates a “wow” effect. Their fusion between old-school guitar solos to the likes of modern metalcore is just something you don't run into everyday. The fact that they are innovative and pull it off quite flawlessly makes The Opposition that much more of a powerhouse release. Listening to each track for the first time is a rite of passage every fan of metal should experience. Some favored tracks include their hit “Sky Came Burning” & “I Once Fought Chuck Norris”. While these tracks offer the most SCB has to offer in their release, new fans will need to listen to the EP all the way through to get the full effect. The Opposition is a release everyone should pick up as soon as possible. Don't jeopardize your metal integrity by ignoring this message. ”

— Mario Treviso, Fans 4 Bands

“ One thing is for certain, you don't want to tuck your kids in and put this CD on. I mean, you might, if that's your thing, but I wouldn't recommend it. I couldn't tell you the name of one song on this CD, not because I can't understand it, but because it has no song titles on it. I'll admit, I can definitely jam to this one. I can only imagine what Sky Came Burning sounds like live. I picture a mad mosh pit, full of bruises and blood and screaming fans, flailing their arms about. This is not music you can just sit around to, that's a certainty. However, if you listen to this at 11pm and you live on the second floor of an apartment building like I do, it's definitely not a good idea to turn it up and thrash around like I have the desire to do at the moment. I wasn't sure I'd dig this stuff. As it turns out, I do. What's not to like? Great guitar riffs, screaming, growling, oh my.”

— Christie Gerber, Shockwave Magazine
