Seattle Times - Concert Review Quotes

"The centerpiece of the set was a couple of anti-war songs off the new album 'Hysteria' and 'Armageddon It' were presented with warlike special effects, including President Reagan intoning 'We went in and did what we had to do' amid the sounds of gunfire and explosions, with laser lights ricocheting off the stage like bullets."

"It was an effective piece of theater."
