Reviews:

“Industrial machinery looms large over this one: the wavering buzz of circular saws slicing cleanly through steel blocks, and the cold reverb that indicates the presence of concrete walls somewhere deep in the shadows. It’s a lonely work, reminiscent of a factory worker boring into the monotony of his labour; acquainting himself with machinery sound until it starts to sing to him, bathing in abstract chords comprised of vacuous hums and gleaming metallic overtones. There’s no doubt Stephen A Burroughs (ex-Head Of David) fancies himself a disciple of Z’EV – excavating the music of metallic surfaces – yet there are allusions toward a dark, troubled psyche here (inhuman voices laced through the echoes, haunted melody patterns) that twist the connotations of the material, thus gifting Tunnels Of Ah its own avenue of musical pursuit.” (Rock-A-Rolla)

“Stephen A Burroughs so po rozpadu Head Of David, které táhnul na přelomu 80. a 90. let spolu s Justinem Broadrickem (dřive Napalm Death, dnes Godflesh, Jesu) téměř vytratil ze scény. Tu a tam můžeme jeho jméno najít na deskách spřízněných umělců (např. u Sunn O)))), přesto návrat tohoto zasloužilého harcovníka s velkým překvapením. Na Lost Corridors se oprostěme od Stephenovy rockové minulosti. Původně nenápadné příměsi industrialu a noisu se prodraly na povrch a zcela opanovaly prostor debutu. Už od prvních minut je zřejmé že autor je hlukař oldschooler. Úvodní From a Cracked Hive (Black Insect Laughter) by totiž neudělala ostudu raným Lustmordovým nahrávkám. Kovové manipulace jsou zasazeny do rozsáhlého temného prostoru tvořeného amorfním, elektronicko-droneovým pozadím. Celá deska má ale mnohem více poloh. Ve ztisění nazvaném A Net Of Woven Starlight přijdou na řadu několikavteřinové smyčky neznámé akustické skladby, a hluková skladba má náhle mnohem blíže lesnímu muži Alio Die dolující starodávné emoce ze zapadlého alpského podhůří. Spojnicí celé skládačky je nenápadná autorova deklamace, která dohromady s minimalisticky hlukovym ambientem může připomenout tvorbu Coil nebo Contrastate, takže nálepka “Industrial Esoterica”, ke které se Tunnels Of Ah hlásí, není tak daleko od věci. Ted’ jen doufejme, že Lost Corridors není osamělým výkřikem do tmy, ale ze Stephen A Burroughs nám že svého studia v budoucnu řekne více.” (UNI Magazine)
