"This was, and still is, a brilliant release. I wish 10% of contemporary noise releases sounded this good." (Heathen Harvest)
"Pure sonic art terrorism. Beyond harsh. Beyond abrasive. Beyond 'industrial madness' or 'power electronics' or 'difficult listening' or any of the usual labels that are thrown around like brand names. You'll find here no didactic, dogmatic drivel; no tapes of Manson or references to Aleister Crowley or magick or mass murder or rape or any of that pretend stuff. This is no-excuses, abstract, monolithic power. Raw and unbridled, yet with a keen compositional sense rivaled by few. This cassette possesses a sound so potent and disruptive that it is nearly tangible - very real, very threatening. An electronic incendiary device. I really can't say much more about Asesino. You'll just have to hear it. No cliches. Just guts and intelligence. A mature, complex work that must be reckoned with." (Electronic Cottage)
"It's not difficult to guess what this is like after hearing a few other PBK cassettes: more whirl and blur. The man will not let up, not until the listener gives in or shuts up. At points the rhythm takes a fevered pitch, though funk this is not. Even when the music shifts into a lull, and never for long, the listener is not lulled (fooled). So, make no mistake, this is aggressive electronic music which is good brain food for a certain state of mind. It will probably send the rest of the world running in fits of panic to escape from the noise, and everyone is entitled to their own opinion. This is the sound of stress. This is the state of unrest. This is the sound that comes long after the silence. I like it." (Lowlife)
