Good Times
"...this young band has gained lots of live energy and transformed it into strong rocking songs"
Metalworld
"...what they do on their debut is high quality and is recommended for fans of The Parlor Mob, The Answer, Gov´t Mule, The Checks. Such Classic Rock Sounds are seldom heard these days. Beautiful and organic 70s retro music from the earthy valley of the butterflies including top Artwork"
Audio: 4/5 points
"...the sound is in defiance of the retro elements vital and bitchy...and even the southern touch of  Lynyrd Skynyrd or the Allman Brothers can`t take away their great uniqueness"
Eclipsed: 7/10 points
"...related: The Black Crowes, Point Blank...ST are rooted deep in the 70s...the voice of Renan makes every song even more interesting. His style is between young Freddie Mercury and Ronnie Van Zant...he's a new singer jewel"

Rock Hard: 8/10
"...deeply rooted in the Classic Rock of the 60s and 70s...true songwriting highlights...musicalwise and songwritingwise absolutely at the highest stage"
Metal Hammer Germany
"...Stone River remind me of a clean not so stoned reissue of the Black Crowes. The sound is very organic, more light than thick with lots of space to breathe. Nine songs provide classic Rock fun and the atmospharic acoustic "The Valley Of The Butterflies" could have fit on Led Zeppelin`s IIII..."
