"The instrumental rock stylings of Alright the Captain veer from ‘jazz odyssey’ moodscapes to fist-making stadium-rousers" - CultureNorthernIreland

"Alright The Captain interlace complex and obscure melodies with some extremely sensible song structures" - Drop-D.ie

“Experimental rock, which bursts from trippy melodic surf to ‘all guns blazing’ progressive and aggressive rock in moments!” - The maze

"enveloping math-rock, chock full of huge noises and complex structures" - Leftlion

"the varying time patterns and distortions used give the band a wider scope for avoiding repetitive sounds that haunt some bands" - The Silent Ballet

“heat fuzzed out surf to twisted funk to stylised angular heaviness. Something for everyone who likes having their cerebral cortexes turned inside out while they wait!” - Sweeping the nation
