"Ooh, rock in big chunks. Bass and drums throbbing. Band who can genuinely go in hard, without sounding like they're developing a hernia while doing so. Look, it's a hard rock band who know what they're doing."
"Lowride have their foot planted firmly in the Fu Manchu school of Seventies inspired rock. The right ingredients went into the mix with another stirling production by Phil McKellar."
"It's rare to hear a young heavy rock band produce a riff as excellent as that on Upside Down. It's even rarer that the quality continues throughout subsequent tracks. Lowride's self-titled effort is well worth checking out."
"A completely rocking independent release...that smacks of big things to come. Rampaging rock with instant appeal...Precise, accented grooves with swagger"
"Lowride have a full, mature and well-developed sound that is best experienced by giving your stereo a run on full-volume....There's definitely a Stone Temple Pilots/Soundgarden/Foos sound happening here"
"I like this.....classic metal riffage with the offbeat kicking as hard as the down for the full pump and grind....tasty little guitar licks to play off the thudding Bonham thing happening on the kit"
"…the performance is flawless…Doubled and chunked distorted guitars drive a maniachal path, under which lies a demonishly sub human bass line, while the drums gorge it along, thumping, heavy and driving."
"Here's a band to look out for in the near future…this is one hard hitting rock outfit…With wild melodies and ball tearing rhythms, Lowride deliver a tight explosive sound…keep an eye out for them around the traps, you won't be disappointed, they rock !"
"Lowride kick it in….Lumbering bass and drums snap to the snare, rolling progressions pound the tunes…it's a damn fine noise and they are a tight trio."
"I had heard Searchin for Tastier Prey and thought it ruled (#3 most played in my total mp3 list), so I knew the opportunity should be taken when they supported rollerball….and they ruled…this band will be big I reckon."
"Lowride kick off the night with their three-way rock chamber. Solid choc chip monsters that romp and stomp their way all around that big room. Tight, intense, sharp, shattering rhythms that throw plenty of meat into the gravy. Chunk a chunk one minute, swirling all crazed like the next."
