“I’ll go to the BENTMEN Christmas party, but I’m afraid to sit on SANTA’S LAP!”David Bowie

“There is something mythological and legendary about BENTMEN. The talent and virtuosity of this band are not illusory. Here is a set of musicians different from any other band present on the scene today, with a message and purpose that is both unique and standard-setting in its sensuality and emotional impact.” A. J. Wachtel, Boston Rock

“…bits and pieces of Peter Gabriel, Foster Brooks, Lost in Space, National Geographic, Santa Claus, Ivanhoe, Broadway, Mrs. Beasley, Leif Ericson, Berlin-era Bowie, Eno, M*A*S*H, Captain Beefheart and the flag desecratrion issue appeared on stage at The Rat before a crowd of patrons squirming in anticipation…”The Noise

“…Every strange, sick, perverted, maniacal thought you ever had about BENTMEN is absolutely true… BENTMEN explore the subconciously evil, mentally ill side of doom rock. What kind of weirdos ARE these people??”Warm Vinyl

“Trying to describe the Bentmen’s live show is like trying to explain an orgasm to a virgin.”Valerie Smith, Lollipop

“At the Boston Music Awards, there was lots of glitz and glamour, with many awards and performances including Aerosmith, Donnie Wahlberg, Guster, The Dambuilders and Morphine, but my hands-down favorite was BENTMEN.”Joyce Kulhawik, WBZ-TV

“Accomplished musicianship… more intense and outrageous than The Residents and GWAR combined!”The Knot

“It’s only a matter of time before BENTMEN will be seen on TV. With hooks as big as Nirvana’s, the driving industrial edge of Ministry and a stage show more intense than Green Jello or The Blue Man Group, it won’t be long before they will be internationally known!”The Beat

“Everything with BENTMEN is a spectacle. Their performance at the Institute of Contemporary Art’s music festival proved by far to be the best, leaving African Headcharge, Danielle Dax and the German bands in their wake.”The Boston Phoenix

“Intense music, madcap live shows… this band is going places!”Rich Kennedy, WZBC

“The intensity and raw talent of BENTMEN alone warrants them an audience a thousand times the size of their already huge and loyal following. However, add to that a theater show equal parts P. T. Barnum and Timothy Leary, truly progressive and individual music… BENTMEN are a tasty pill and there’s no need for force feeding.”Joe Bonni, The Weekly Dig

“If you’ve never seen BENTMEN, it’s tough to put the experience into words… a living, breathing, sweating, gyrating, pulsating, sonic assault on your senses. This is a show of Biblical proportions. It’s about time they were recognized as one of the most dynamic and imaginative musical shows ever.”Stuff Magazine

“Even *I* wouldn’t wear what those fuckers were wearing!”Steven Tyler, Aerosmith
