What Others Have Said "Their playing is spontaneous, driving and outside the boundaries of any label you could possibly pin on them. It is completely unique rock music, and that's a rare bird these days." - NY Press "Amazingly inventive." - All Music Guide "Unlike so many instrumental rock albums, Pretest is no indulgence in wankery, but an honest-to-Miles Davis artistic statement." - High Bias "Pretest is a superb album by a wordless group with much to say." - The Wire "Dysrhythmia can bring the rock. Hard. It’s not willfully complex, or tricky just for the sake of it; the tunes hang together as tunes first and foremost. Everything from sheer hard-hitting rock to ambient trance, from thrash to Melvins-like sludge-jams is put in the kick-ass blender that is Dysrhythmia. Hang on!" - Dusted "...the record Sonic Youth would make if they cared more about heavy metal, the record Slayer would do if they were art-school nerds" - The Philadelphia City Paper
