Great, energizing listen." Check us out in idioteq with a shit ton of other amazing bands! http://www.idioteq.com/in-shorts-11-mid-september-news-roundup-the-dark-moods-are-coming/ "The band goes all in to create a cohesive sound, all while a more brooding and emotionally intense sound is enough to ensnare listeners for the long haul. we’ll be playing the crap out of this album through the end of the year." neufutur.com  http://neufutur.com/2017/09/voice-of-addiction-the-lost-art-of-empathy-ep/ Check out an interview I just did for Mid Tennessee Music www.midtnmusic.com/interview-voice-of-addiction  new review of the new full length "The album is half old-school Good Riddance (ACGTMR era) and half Fugazi, with not-quite-anthem-like melodies. You hear some sprinkles of Graffin-style vocal harmonies and melodies, and it really suits the music." bucketlist music reviews http://www.bucketlistmusicreviews.com/voice-addiction-lost-art-empathy  check out V.o.A. in the new issue of Stencil Magazine https://issuu.com/stencilmag/docs/issue45 "Every generation breeds courageous idealists who aren’t afraid to question the current status quo, and challenge the mounting social and political frustrations that many working-class citizens are experiencing in their lives. Such bold visionaries make up Voice of Addiction and inspire its latest record."
