What the critics are saying about the album:

“Propulsive and swinging, devoid of egotism and ugliness… ‘Katorz’ shows up most extreme metal for the fool's cartoon that it is. 4/5” – Chuck Eddy, SPIN

“If ‘Katorz’ is the band's last work — and it's a credit to modern recording technology that we have it at all —  then it's a fitting testament to a fallen metal soldier and a worthy goodbye for one of heavy music's most original and distinctive bands.” – Don Kaye, BLABBERMOUTH

"Katorz is an amazing return to form by Canada's greatest metal export. A quintessential release that does the dearly departed Piggy proud." - Sean Palmerston, EXCLAIM!
