    One of the most powerfully intense live acts on the circuit, Prostitute have miraculously transferred that intensity to this truly extraordinary record. [Apr 2026, p.108]

    Attempted Martyr is a brilliantly brutal debut, one that leaves listeners nearly exhausted when it ends, only because of its nonstop outpouring of magnificent noise.

    Daunting? Yes. Fun and engaging? That too. [Apr 2026, p.86]

    No single track grandstands, but the Black Midi-ish epic roll of "Senegal" is a laser-tooled highlight. [Mar 2026, p.36]

    Littered with fragments of found voice recordings and beefed up with pumping guitar riffs, Attempted Martyr takes no prisoners and, in the spirit of the group's origin state, efficiently kicks out the jams. [May 2026, p.61]

    Although their distorted punk pairs well with Midwestern bands they’ve opened for, like the Armed or Angry Blackmen, Prostitute are no imitators.

    If your bag is relentless hectoring from five angry, tune averse firebrands, feel free to have at it. Doubtlessly great live, though. [Apr 2026, p.81]
