about anthony's recent solo record "empty kingdoms" on black petal - "devastating... the type of album every musician wants to make. Guerra's music is the kind of stuff you internalize. It sticks to your bones" BRAD ROSE/FOXY DIGITALIS

"sweet, sad poisons.. I like it a lot" BRIAN OLEWNICK / BAGATELLEN

"It's utter desolate music.. Strumming his guitar, lonely, this still has traces of improvisation, but it moves outside. The influence of Loren MazzaCane Connors is never far away in this lonely blues, or that of Richard Youngs when it comes to his singing. Occasionally there are some percussive sounds or a slide guitar, but other that it's music of despair, grief and perhaps hope. It's great stuff, in all it's sadness."
" FRANS DE WAARD / VITAL
