"THE ALBUM COVER IS ESTHETICALLY PLEASING TO THE EYE AND THE CD IS ORGASMICALLY PLEASING TO THE EAR. I SIMPLY CANNOT ESCAPE THE SINFUL SOUNDS OF SISTER HYDE!. THEY SING ABOUT WHAT MOST OF US ARE AFRAID TO SAY AND THEIR BOLD UPBEAT ROCK 'N' ROLL SONGS ARE LIKE SNORTING COLUMBIAN COCAINE, YOU GET A HIGHLY ADDICTIVE INSTANT HIGH. I APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT THEY SERVE UP COMEDY MIXED WITH UNFILTERED TRUTH, MAKING IT SOUND PRETTY WHEN SERVED ON A SILVER PLATTER!. MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES ON THIS ALBUM ARE "WANNA HAVE SEX WITH YOU","SEX CHANGE" AND "HIGH MAINTENANCE BITCH". JUST BECAUSE THEY COME FROM A WINTERY COUNTRY DOESN'T MEAN THEY CAN'T MAKE YOU FEEL HOT AND BOTHRED AS THEY DO WITH ABSOLUTE EASE."
5 OUT OF 5 STARS___Krash City Magazine
"ONE OF THE BEST PURE GLAM ROCK ALBUMS I’VE EVER HEARD! FRONTMAN HYde IS A READY MADE SUPERSTAR and is a mix between MARC BOLAN, ALICE COOPER and a little bit of MARYLIN MANSON. HIS VOCALS ARE EXCELLENT and he has just the right amount of snarly accent and swagger without sounding pretend or arrogant.This album reminds be of The SEX PISTOLS, THE ROLLING STONES and MOTLEY CRUE all at the same time, an ECLECTIC MIX to be sure, but boy does it work! DEFINETLY WORTH CHECKING OUT."__GlobalMindWebZine
"Some bands are made for our measure. This happened to me with GUNS 'N ROSES in 1987 and the same with MARILYN MANSON at the end of 90’s... Now for me SISTER HYDE has caused the same impact!"___Sounds Like New (Spain)
"Sister Hyde’s GENDER-BENDING,SATAN-BEARDED FRONTMAN/AXE-WRANGLER HYde is LET LOOSE IN AN ALL-NUDE LAS VEGAS REVIEW, all snarls and confetti,motorcyle-guitar riffs and sleazy come-ons. Who knows what his game is? Who knows where he comes from? One thing is for sure: HE REALLY KNOWS HOW TO THROW A HELL OF A PARTY! SEX CHANGE IS FULL OF LEATHER-CLAD GONGBANGERS like Peter Pan Syndrome,High Maintenance Bitch and Wanna Have Sex with You. Alot of bands have tried to conjure up the hedonistic circus of the New York Dolls, while manifestly failing to bring out all of the goofy, dopey fun that Manhattan’s finest reveled in. There are never likely to be any such worries with this swinging sister."____ CLASSIC ROCK MAGAZINE (UK)
"THIS ALBUM FUCKING ROCKS!"___Backstage Live Magazine
"GRIT IN YER TEETH... SISTER HYDE BRINGS A BITE
SISTER HYDE BRINGS YOU SEX CHANGE, A RAW,GRITTY,RAVING HEADBANGING ALBUM WITH THAT 80's POWER SOUND THAT IS ALL OF THE GUITAR & GLITTERING GLAM! 10 TRACKS OF CATCHY TUNES THAT ARE PERFECT FOR RAGING DOWN THE ROAD, RILING UP A PARTY AND SATURDAY NIGHT SINNING."___Hear-Say Magazine
"I'M A FAN OF SISTER HYDE'S AUTHENTIC ROCK 'N' ROLL!!!.THIS ALBUM IS VERY HIGH ENERGY AND MAKES YOU DRUNK WITH MUSICAL HAPPINESS WITH EVERY AMAZING,GLIMMERING GUITAR LICK... I REALLY LIKE HOW Mr HYde CAN USE HIS VOICE IN MORE THAN ONE WAY.NOT MANY VOCALISTS DO THIS AT ALL.. THE CD IS PACKED WITH GLAM AND PUNCH AND IS A GREAT SOUNDTRACK FOR THE SUMMER! GIRLS AND err BOYS GET YOUR RUBY RED LIPSTICK AND BLACK EYE-LINER OUT BECAUSE THIS ALBUM WILL MAKE YOU JUMP AROUND THE BEDROOM IN YOUR PANTIES."___Over The Counter Culture

"This KICKS ASS. Good music is the stuff good memories are made of. If you ever listen to a song and go "Yeah,this makes me remember the days when...",You know you've hit on something worth listening to and Boy Howdy "SEX CHANGE",the new album by by SISTER HYDE HITS THE FUCKING NAIL ON THE HEAD! MAKING ROCK AND ROLL THE WAY IT''S SUPPOSED TO BE MADE IS WHAT SISTER HYDE IS ALL ABOUT and they are True to their Rock and Roll roots when they do it. Guitar,bass,drums and a GREAT SET OF PIPES make this AN INCREDIBLE ALBUM with flavours of Motley Crue,Poison,The Dolls and all those great 80's bands that were synonymous with EYE-LINER,BIG HAIR and AQUA NET! And if you're old enough to remember those days,YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THE HELL OUT OF SEX CHANGE because it delivers the sameTRASHY,NASTY,SEXY,IN YOUR FACE LYRICS AND RHYTHMS. THIS IS THE STUFF GREAT PARTY SOUNDTRACKS ARE MADE OF and it certainly makes you wanna raise a glass and holler Rock and Roll. IF YOU LOVE TRUE ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC, THIS IS ONE ALBUM YOU'RE GONNA WANNA RUN OUT AND BUY,so what the Hell are you waiting for?!? SISTER HYDE SCORES AGAIN."___Dark Deva
"Sister Hyde is here to take you back. This Toronto based Glam rock band is here to take you back to when Glam rock was in its infancy. Perhaps named after the 1971 Hammer film “Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde”, Sister Hyde has a lot in common with the early 1970’s. I feel it would be impossible to play their 2013 album “Sex Change” without thinking of the NEW YORK DOLLS. Or even early 70’s ROLLING STONES. This is a RAMPED UP FUN RECORD full of STRAIGHTFORWARD SONGS,PROVOCATIVE LYRICS and CATCHY HOOKS. It BLEEDS STYLE and instantly transports you back to a time when Glam rock was a solid part of the ANDROGYNOUS counter culture. NOTHING ABOUT SEX CHANGE FEELS FORCED OR FAKE. THIS BAND KNOWS GLAM ROCK! The band can swing from the frisky “I Want to Have Sex With You,” to the more serious sounding “Peter Pan Syndrome.” EACH SONG SOUNDS NATURAL and INTENSELY ENJOYABLE.. As Sex Change plays on, it gets stronger. It becomes a cohesive whole that jumps flawlessly between fun and serious. But jumps so smoothly that it never feels compulsory. With ten songs that stretch only four minutes past the half hour mark, this is A QUICK FUN ALBUM. It is not easy to attempt a style that was popular forty years ago and give it the makeover needed to keep it from sounding dated. SISTER HYDE KEEPS A FRESH SOUND on Sex Change, while keeping the record grounded in the best of Glam rock. It is a tricky balancing act and SISTER HYDE NAILS IT."
____Crimson Moon Magazine
"One of the best things about my line of work is the EXCITEMENT OF COMING ACROSS TRULY GREAT MUSIC!. If you rely on the mainstream corporate recording industry to bring you good music, you'll be waiting forever and you'll miss out on GEMS LIKE SISTER HYDE. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that HYde, who writes all the band's music and lyrics and is the band's vocalist and lead guitarist, is a genius! THIS IS HANDS DOWN THE MOST COMPLETELY ORIGINAL ALBUM I'VE HEARD IN MANY YEARS!!! HYde has a way of taking the best from 70s GLAM bands and musicians like the NEW YORK DOLLS, DAVID BOWIE and T. REX, and combining that with the hottest PUNK sounds from groups like the SEX PISTOLS, THE RAMONES and IGGY POP, then BRINGING THAT INTO THE 21st CENTURY FOR A THOROUGHLY MODERN FEEL. This is a sound the band aptly calls "GLITTERPUNK". THE ALBUM WILL GRAB YOUR ATTENTION AND DRAW YOU IN. THIS CD IS FILLED WITH WICKED,CRUNCHY ,NASTY GUITARS AND TED'Ss SLEAZY VOCALS THAT ARE AT ONCE SENSUOUS AND DANGEROUS..
SISTER HYDE IS ON THE PRECIPICE OF BIGGER THINGS TO COME! THEY WILL EXPLODE ONTO THE SCENE!."___Electric Pussycat Magazine
"I've come across alot of Frontmen who mostly emulate others and who are not exactly AUTHENTIC but HYde of Canadian band SISTER HYDE IS THE TOTAL OPPOSITE OF WHAT ONE MIGHT EXPECT!.He is a well refined world traveler who still holds on to the timeless style in fashion and,rescues dogs.He is EVERYTHING THAT IS UNEXPECTED LOOMING BEHIND HIS MYSTERIOUS FACADE and viewing the world from his own perspective.If you are intrigued thus far,read on and find out about the MAN,the WOMAN and the BEAST that is SISTER HYDE."___The Sister Hyde interview-KrashCity Magazine
