“Nasalrod completely obliterates any preconceived notions about the boundaries of genre and traditional songwriting. There isn’t any formula for what they do. The Portland band’s new record, Building Machines, will force you to reconsider the capabilities of guitar, bass, and drums. If you like your musicianship uncanny and your style adventurous, Building Machines will have you perplexed and loving it.” - Aris Hunter Wales, THE PORTLAND MERCURY
"Nasalrod’s new album is a fun, furious blast of Zappa-esque punk derangement...Landing between the prog funk of Mr. Bungle and the spastic post-punk of Brainiac, Building Machines offers a glimpse at what might happen if the Blood Brothers kidnapped Mike Patton and joined the circus.” -Peter Cottell THE WILLAMETTE WEEK
"Nasalrod’s live performances exceed expectations, with vocalist Chairman embodying an unhinged hybrid of David Yow, Keith Morris, and Mike Patton, rarely standing still and typically hovering about four feet off the ground. The dynamic, rhythmic interplay between bassist Mandy Morgan, drummer Spit Stix (formerly of LA punk legends Fear), and guitarist Mustin Douch is easily one of the most formidable aural attacks in the city. -Ryan J Prado, THE PORTLAND MERCURY

Nasalrod is a frenetic, genre-bending, manic art-punk band that looks beyond the stylistic roots of punk rock while still managing to provide the sense of adventure and essential spirit that the genre originated from.
