"Batillus' mega-doom is some high-dosage shit; super-sized riffs anchor the load, but 'Furnace' is way more than just thick strings, bass drones, fuzz boxes, and early Sabbath LPs. Their debut comes soaked in a lysergic emulsion of USBM melancholia, weird quasi-industrial distortion and feedback, with epic jams coming out for air when the Brooklyn quartet wants to kick it all laid-back and loose-leafed with some NeurIsis-style clean guitar." - DECIBEL
"Big on atmosphere, big on time and big on tone, the first album from Brooklyn doomers Batillus is a bleak, oppressive six-song outing that’s bound to ring their name out among the underground converted." - THE OBELISK
"Fans of massive riffs and being crushed to death in slow motion have got a fantastic album to look forward to in 'Furnace.' For a debut full-length, Batillus has done something pretty spectacular." - METAL UNDERGROUND
