EightFold's 'The Quick or The Dead,' marks the bands first release as a trio. The dynamic album illustrates just how big a sound three people can make. Raw and meaty, the music channels diverse musical influences from Led Zeppelin and Alice in Chains, to Johnny Cash and Neil Young. Their songs range from soulful, vocal driven ballads with melody-infused guitar licks, to progressive compositions with catchy hooks, heavy bass, and shredding guitar stomps. Skope Magazine predicts “EightFold to be the next big band out of New England,” saying “these guys define what I am looking for in a rock band as they create music that is unique, catchy, and real.” 　　 　　"Eightfold had me walking away feeling like Rock had made a come back and is damn well here to stay," says Vents Magazine. They continue, "Maybe it’s cause of such well organized tracks such as 'Under Light', 'Rest Assured' & 'Changes'; three songs that I heard back to back and I was looking forward to hearing the rest." 　　-Vents Magazine 　　 　　"We see a lot of music cross our desks from bands trying to break into the scene, bands that have built up a small local following and are hoping to gain more exposure. On occasion, something will come across that makes us wonder why this band or artists isn’t already on a major label, and Eightfold is such a band." 　　-The Daily Vault
