"Moody, passionate and elegant indie-rock anthem. It is burning with passion and desire as the rhythm gyrates and swells beneath the layers of burning guitars and harmonies and passionate vocals - it is emotionally charged and electric.

Barry Gruff

There are great moments on The Price of Vigilance. The production and performances often got me excited. I look forward to hearing what The Soviet Influence does on future releases.

Graham Hall

This politically charged alt-rock group describe their sound as "death-consciousness".

Sarah's Hotspot

"The Canadian based trio have been refining their sound to what you hear today, a perfect blend of angular guitar tones that you'd find in some of The Strokes' early work, vocal tones that can be compared to that of The Kooks'."

It's All Indie

"I hear something Thom Yorke-ish mixed with elements of...I'm not sure. Gord Gano's vocals from The Violent Femmes? Good spooky stuff, to be sure."

Alan Cross

"'Rust' has a lulling earwormy quality that gets to you on repeated listenings, also carried by a nice acoustic guitar, a remote but lovely lead guitar line, and affectingly intimate vocals."

Dennis Pilon

"Guitars expand from bare rhythm accompaniments to twangy, melodic leads, as the emotive vocal presence revs up. The vocal presence throughout reminds fondly of Manic Street Preachers’ James Dean Bradfield. A slick guitar solo approaching the two-minute mark also adds effectively to the song’s tone and allure."

Obscure Sound

 "More art than commercial."
