“These nine songs are monstrously heavy. Hell, one song has wolves howling in it. Wolves don’t howl for anyone, you know.”

“The Sword’s debut, Age of Winters, is worthy of Sabbath, Satan and/or Will Ferrell’s stamp of approval, as it’s filled to the brim with tasty licks.” -DECOY  MUSIC

  “Keep an eye on The Sword because they're soon going to be mentioned next to Black Label Society, Clutch, The Melvins, and High on Fire. On their stunning debut album, Age of Winters, this Austin, Texas-based quartet raise the bar for Black Sabbath-worshipping stoner metal”  --SOUTHCOAST 247

“We’re not talking about overproduced, alternating-between-a-growly-growl-and-a-lilting-croon-vocal metal, the kind that teens who don’t know any better like. We’re talking about massive riffs and killer grooves, war metal minus the camp. These nine songs are monstrously heavy. Hell, one song has wolves howling in it. Wolves don’t howl for anyone, you know.” --STONER ROCK
