"Simply some of the most creative yet fun progressive music I have heard from a new band ever! Spacey...psychedelic... quite spectacular... Give me any song on this album, and I could give a few reasons why it's a great song. The band's skill cannot be faulted, and in particular I enjoy Noel's melodic bass guitar being high in the mix. Each song is about as satisfying as the last, and it's easy to listen to one song on its own, or the album as a whole. I've poured over this album time and time again, and I haven't found a single fault in the music. For an album to keep me riveted and satisfied all the way through is really quite special, particularly from an obscure band like this. I take my ratings seriously, and a flawless album like this is worthy of nothing less than the highest grade. Sonic Astronomy is an album that deserves to be in your collection, and I shall cherish it for years to come. 10 out of 10." - Basil Francis, Dutch Progressive Rock Pages
"An omnivorous band that blends Space-Rock, Psychedelic-Rock and Acid-Rock with Punk, Post-Punk, and New-Wave elements, in the most unusual way. Powerful and greasy bass lines...hooky guitar licks and long lysergic solos that go from the Acid Space-Rock to the Psychedelic-Blues...smart and unexpected moments of percussion...cosmic, soaring keyboards. A fantastic anachronism as unpredictable as an ungoverned time-machine." - Marcelo Trotta, Progressive Rock and Metal
"Plastic Overlords play a symphonic style of 70s-psychedelia that isn't afraid to rock in a glam-rock sort of way. What is really surprising is that these guys managed to create melodies, and recreate certain recording styles, dynamics, and tones that are as beautiful as those found on the English albums of the time. Plastic Overlords will please psychedelic, and space rock fans who also enjoy prog rock. - Zoltan's Progressive Rock Pages
"Extremely British sounding with their roots firmly entrenched in the glorious seventies when Progressive Rock ruled the musical scene. The influences are there, yet Plastic Overlords manage to create a fusion of all these and come up with a sound of their own. I can't wait for the second album!" 7.5 out of 10. - Dutch Progressive Rock Pages
"A Moment Of Silence For Unsynchronized Watches", sets the tone for the set illustrating the band's trademark mix of psychedelia and 70's classic progressive rock. Guaranteed to stimulate those neurons!" - Aural Innovations
"Every so often something unique comes along to restore faith, as inspired imagination seems to be fading from the musical terrain...Plastic Overlords' amalgamation of styles should intrigue adventurous listeners...drama and flair...punkish feel vocally...superb playing...far-out atmospherics...heavy guitars...gallops through art-rock psych with dexterity and tempo shifts galore." - Warren Barker, Progression Magazine
