"Maverick Duo" -DPRP [LP IV]

"..flamboyantly arrange tunes that border on the weirdness of early Frank Zappa.." -DPRP [LPIV]

"..barrage the senses with a sonic cornucopia."

"Ontologics prove masterful on Drones From Home [LP II]...Cruising into a psychedelic territory, the duo creates an intriguing soundscape that reflects the thoughts inside the human mind." - Bill Copeland Music News

"There was never a doubt regarding the phenomenal musical ability of this outfit, but to exploit this skill fully and translate it into an album as brilliant as their debut requires equally skillful songwriting chops...the musicianship on par with its predecessor and even the songwriting is every bit as good...” - Daily Vault

“...some will hear rock influences from groups like...Rage Against The Machine and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Others will hear more psychedelic rock influence by groups like Pink Floyd. And still others will hear some jazz-fusion influence reminiscent of guitar great Al Di Melola on tracks like 'Stretch Armstrong.' Ontologics' lyrics show a sort of political and social awareness by Campopiano and Walshe." - Roots Time, Belguim

Something To Needle Over was named one of the top DIY Albums of 2014 by the Indie Rock Cafe and has received numerous press features and reviews.
