CRITIC REVIEWS

90
The Fly

Frankly, it’s a delightful, demented journey into pure psych chaos. Essential listening.

musicOMH

The mixture of mournfulness, savagery, lo-fi spirit and noise should appeal to psych fans and college rockers, metalheads and hardcore punks alike.

AllMusic

This all-or-nothing approach makes Deep Trip an exhilarating listen that's just as capable of amping listeners up with its vital punk energy as it is freaking them out with its surging undercurrent of mind-altering sludge

74
Pitchfork

If space-rock as a whole is a role-playing game, one in which its players imagine having front-row seats for the heat-death of the universe, then Deep Trip is the one of most advanced vehicles yet designed to take them there.

70
PopMatters

Brutal, detached, unsettling, it’s all bracing jolts as the vehicle careens through the barren soundscape, from its desert origins as dry, hostile, and primal.

70
Consequence of Sound

Deep Trip, Destruction Unit’s second effort, is a druggy mindfuck of a record, one that staggers a wayward line between heat stroke and altered consciousness. It’s loud, colorful, weird, and, as the title asserts, trippy.

57

A psychedelic (and deep) sonic trip through the outskirts of sound and texture, all fueled by huge ammounts of punk rebellion and noise-rock paranoia.
