Review at Stalker Magazine
9/10!
Marilyn Manson and Slipknot mentioned.
” Although singer Jarkko has proved his versatility and talent for catchy – and memorable – choruses before, he has obviously worked on his vocal delivery, which adds a lot to the ear-candy quality of such a rough song like The Hated Saint. Occasionally his voice reminds me of Marilyn Manson – or better, a Manson who can actually sing…”

Review at RingMaster Review
“Like a fusion of Fear Factory and Marilyn Manson in league with Dope and Powerman 5000, the album and opening track, The Hated Saint explode on the senses with anthemic ferocity.”

6,5/10
“The Book of V on ammattitaitoisesti tehtyä musiikkia, jossa jokaisessa kappaleessa on selkeä koukku, välittömästi takaraivoon tarttuva jippo. ”

8,5/10
Slipknot, Jazz and Punk mentioned!
“The Book Of V ain’t perfect, it’s ugly, it’s raw, it’s fast and it has got some weird attitude, which makes it awesome[…] It’s a right time to get back to this band and it’s recommended for anyone in a need for some Finnish aggression and attitude”

Review on She-Wolf
8/10
Marilyn Manson and Static-X mentioned and apparently J.L does not sound like Count Dracula, which is, of course, impossible, cos he is Vlad the motherfucking Impaler (where else would all that blood on his shirt come from?)!
This one is auf Deutsch, so take a look at it with a dictionary!

The Book Of V Murska-arviot -blogin arvostelussa.
3/5
In Finnish only.
“Yksittäisinä irtokappaleina levy on parhaimmillaan ja suhteellisen universaalin soundinsa ansiosta tämä on ihan kelvollista lääkettä Kornin ja Marilyn Mansonin puutteeseen. […] Suomalaisittain kohtuu hyvin onnistunut genrensä edustaja.”

Review on Cadaver Garden
“The fine balance between everything that is going on in this record makes for a sound that is diverse. Fueled by aggression and accompanied along the way by heartbreak, The Book of V is an interesting book indeed. V For Violence can make you want to trash the place as well as make you feel like you need to go sulk in a corner. Overall The Book of V is a great sophomore effort from these Finnish industrial metal lads, and well worth the listen.”
