writingaboutmusic.blogspot.com review by Scott Heller:
"I love this EP. Really cool Tom Waits at times inspired stuff from this duo from Omsk. The bio describes them as acoustic, moog, folk rock, southern rock, blues. The band features: Max Ryabikov — vocal, guitar, bass, moog minitaur and Vitalii Dorofeichik on drums.

The CD plays as one long 26min track and starts with the The Road. It has some spacey synths and sounds, followed by a spoken word in Russian and then slowly the guitar and drums enter and the mood is totally different. A laid back slow vocal accompanies the slow pace of the guitar and drums. Some additional sounds appear at times. I dig the vibe a lot. The first track was 8 ½ mins long and now we start a new track with a simple repeated guitar line and spoken word. After a minute it stops and a new guitar line and drums start with some synths as well. I like his dark, deep voice even though I have no idea what he sings about! Later the keyboard plays a much more important role as the guitar disappears for a while. Strange and intriguing changes. Another track grows out of this one with a quite dark vibe and then a more happy vocal and guitar changes the mood totally. Another spoken word section and more happy track to end the CD with an almost southern rock vibe.

You can hear the entire album below. Great stuff and quite unique."

battlehelm.com review by Anders Ekdahl:
"I am game for anything musically. Even a 26 minute long acoustic track divided into 4 musical parts by a two man band from Omsk called GROGGY. I know that it sounds anything but alright, but it is actually a rather cool concept. Not the stuff you might usually listen to but if you like me like the Johnny Cash American recordings you might like this too. Not that this is a cover album but because it has that sort of dark country kinda vibe that will appeal to even a die-hard extreme metalhead like me. This is not the obvious party center piece, more like the dark, in the woods alone in a cabin kinda mood."

Музыканты предпочитают свободное и парящее исполнение: да - психоделическое, да — прогрессивное, но они слишком были заняты музыкой, чтобы соответствовать чему бы то ни было в полной мере. И вот desert rock – кажется, это ближе к десятке на мишени. Да, пусть будет так. полностью https://resurgam.ucoz.ru/blog/transnadeznost_39_2018_monomyth_zavisimyj_lejbl_digipak/2019-12-04-943 resurgam2716

Бром готовят свой коктейль из жанров смешивая авангардный джаз с панком, они это называют "no jazz" или "jazz punk". Первый раз я их увидел живьём на их совместном концерте с московскими stoner doom монстрами The Moon Mistress (Dekonstruktor), фирменной структурности Бром предшествовала мгла и открывающиеся врата Ада - это было незабываемо. Приятного аппетита, дамы и господа. https://vk.com/e_avantgarde?w=wall-30775286_2164 666
