BRAINWASHED.COM: The influences on Pass/Ages are clear and rooted deeply in the 1980s, but one of the strongest things about Taken Underneath is how it sounds, from a production standpoint, entirely contemporary.  Instead of an intentionally retro aesthetic, the duo takes the inspiration from the era, but no conscious attempt to mimic anything too specifically.  The production also has just the right amount of DIY grime though.  By no means is it amateurish, but it lacks the unnatural sheen that would strip it of its unique sound.  Taken Underneath is an extremely memorable, distinct album that is a fitting continuation of the Ars Phoenix legacy.

Brainwashed.com: "Unlike many in the industrial/synth pop revivalist movement, Ars Phoenix makes no attempt to sound like they are tied specifically to the early 1980s.  Their use of drum machines and synths might be in line with those days, but their overall approach is far more contemporary.  It balances the familiar and fresh expertly, and results for some extremely catchy songs, the type of record that draws me in over and over again." --Brainwashed.com review of Violent Rain
