  • Melody Maker (10/23/93, p. 33) - " genuine expression of outrage...Sepultura are not in the business of splatter soundtracks or documentary gore-fests—they write protest songs."
  • NME (10/23/93, p. 37) - "Chaos AD may be the term for the boiling point rage against state corruption and persecution, but leave the sickening negativity and chronic egoism to others."

Famous quotes containing the word reception:

    Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    I gave a speech in Omaha. After the speech I went to a reception elsewhere in town. A sweet old lady came up to me, put her gloved hand in mine, and said, “I hear you spoke here tonight.” “Oh, it was nothing,” I replied modestly. “Yes,” the little old lady nodded, “that’s what I heard.”
    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)

    Aesthetic emotion puts man in a state favorable to the reception of erotic emotion.... Art is the accomplice of love. Take love away and there is no longer art.
    Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)
