“There are two kinds of metal fans: ones who count Long Island’s Moon Tooth among their favorite young up and coming bands, and ones who haven’t heard them yet. The number of people in the latter category is about to get significantly smaller: their debut full-length, Chromaparagon, announces their arrival in a big, bad way. Like the bastard child resulting from a three-way between Protest the Hero, SikTh, and The End, there is, as far as we can tell, nothing Moon Tooth can’t do. They’re heavy, they’re melodic, they’re intimidatingly skilled musicians, they’re great songwriters, and holy shit, wait ’til you see them live.” – Metal Sucks

“Fusion is all the rage, both in food and music. Bands like Wild Throne and now Moon Tooth are offering up a new take on fusion: modern prog fusion. Both bands seem equally indebted to the Mastodonian and The Mars Volta, and both bands are doing so with pretty much equal success. Moon Tooth is a newer New York-based group whose prog fusion sound is a glorious mess that only makes more sense the more you let it marinate. If you take the best elements of the aforementioned bands and add in dashes of Protest the Hero, The Dillinger Escape Plan, and even bits of Incubus’ funk metal, you get an idea of the beautiful mess Moon Tooth have created here.” – New Noise

“a constant pulse of motion in-between your ears. The music is colorfully off-kilter and will have you coming back time and time again, not only to hear the music, but also the performance that comes with it. If you’re sleeping on Moon Tooth, do yourself a favor and don’t.” – Heavy Blog is Heavy
