Quotes:

‘’Equal parts ‘Selfless’-era Godflesh, early Filter, and a twist of Killing Joke seep into a mountain of bass-heavy, atmospheric sludge with the progressive ease of later Alchemist and lustrous Sabbath-synth of Type-O-Negative. It is a fully baked sound that is awfully heavy yet meticulously written.’’ -Grizzly Butts

“Talbot can now be considered true pioneers of the Sludge/Post-Metal genre. Talbot is now a force to be reckoned within the realm of extreme music. Scaled is a brilliant album and one that will be called a classic in the years to come.” -The Sludgelord

‘’Overall, Magnetism is a gloriously heavy and exciting album that has a lot to say and is worth many repeated listens. Excellent and Highly Recommended.’’ -Outlaws Of The Sun
