What the critics are saying:

"SLEEPYTIME GORILLA MUSEUM combines killer musicianship with some truly inspired bombast." ??? THE NEW YORKER

??????outrageous and inventive??? a strange and unsettling world?????? ??? BOSTON GLOBE

??????experimental anti-rock that growls and screeches?????? ??? SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE

??????infamous low-brow freakazoid performance artists???serving up a Frankenstein's monster of sad lullabyes, aural dementia, quasi-industrial pigfuckery, experimental atmospherics, Eastern Euro-folk, and ominous metallic noise ??? THE VILLAGE VOICE

'SLEEPYTIME GORILLA MUSEUM is the archetypal Bay Area art-rock disaster; it isn't so much the meaningless pounding as the beating that irks us..." ??? TIME OUT NEW YORK

???A band too experimental to be confined to one category, SGM bridges metal and circus sounds...??? ??? THE TUSCON CITIZEN

???THESIS: SLEEPYTIME GORILLA MUSEUM are the perfect band.??? ??? PREFIXMAG.COM
For fans of experimental and uncompromising rock, be sure to buy a ticket to this Museum??? ??? ALL MUSIC GUIDE

???Wonderful mess of eccentric tangles??? ??? BRAVE WORDS & BLOODY KNUCKLES
 
???SGM's unsettling fare is only for the adventurous and I wouldn't recommend them for family gatherings, friendly get-togethers or dates??? ??? PROG ARCHIVES

???Is it prog? Is it metal? Is it avant-garde? No, it???s Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. Honestly, this groundbreaking  album is so diverse and unclassifiable that it really fits into none of these categories, yet is made up of elements that make each genre so intriguing??? ??? SEA OF TRANQUILITY

???There is no band out there like SGM. Their diverse style and sound sets them apart from everyone??? ??? UNRESTRAINED!

???SGM is all over the place???. Definitely not for the faint of heart or anyone who likes cookie-cutter music.??? ??? ZERO MAGAZINE
