Super 400's sound was heavy, like molten lead, a '70s-era Zeppelin-esque bomb of no-holds-barred rock-and-roll. Lori Friday roamed the neck of her instrument during a handful of solos, laying down heavy riffs that evoked the Viking-attack marches of John Paul Jones. Guitarist Hohman squeezed warm but aggressive tones from his amp and at times launched his voice to surprising highs. It not surprising to discover that the mayor of the act’s hometown established a "Super 400" day to honor this group. - Kevin Galaba

Super 400 ripped into the (pause) most (pause) BERSERK blitzkrieg of brutally delicious sound that it was literally shocking. It felt like when your brain rips in half the nanosecond before one of your better orgasms. I mean, This is Rock and Roll, and really, that’s all there is to say. They destroy. - Tara Murtha

JamBase Review

When I hear Super 400's spleen shaking low end and positively feral guitars I want to ditch everything and become their roadie. If they'd been born 30 years earlier they'd have opened for Thin Lizzy and Bad Company, and they'd have made the headliners sweat every night. This is rock 'n' roll as religion – hard and high reaching, denim apostles with big amps and even bigger balls.

3 And The Beast is heavier than its predecessors but still swivels on lubricated hips. Singer- guitarist Kenny Hohman has a boulder-busting wail worthy of Steve Marriott's Humble Pie days. Drummer Joe Daly and bassist Lori Friday consistently remind us why the power trio is such a holy combo. In a just world, Super 400's latest would be gatefold double vinyl we could sort out the seeds and stems on. Glorious.

Simply put, Super 400 has zeroed in on the lost art of the rock and roll power trio, and mastered it in the process. –Ronni James

Worcester Telegram & Gazette

The band offers a brand of true rock fury that often has to fight its way through a particular trend just to get noticed, but is likewise a style of music that will outlast the cockroaches themselves." -Scott McLennan

30-seconds in and you’ll know you’re onto something cool. If you like your rock infused with rhythm & blues like Free and the Faces once did it then this is the band for you. This is chunky, open-throated power trio heaven with a major soul jones...
It’s a full yet uncluttered sound expressed most perfectly on the album’s bookends “Blast the Message” and “Our Season Has Come”. I could go on but your ears will tell you the true tale. Raise a fist for Super 400 and see if they don’t rock you like a proper fuckin’ hurricane.-Dennis Cook

Mobile Entertainment

With bassist Lori Friday and drummer Joe Daley in pure mind-meld mode, singer/guitarist Kenny Hohman can stretch out and show his depth on the reflective "Green Grass End," balancing a falsetto vocal line or two with his normal, rougher Paul Rodgers/Doyle Bramhall II tone. The squealing, s-s-s-mokin' "High Hopes" is the perfect lead into album closer "Our Season Has Come," which is très Creamy with additional textures. Spread the Message. -Mike Mettler

Mojo Magazine

Super 400 - Super 400 A new power-trio! Heart-cockles are well and truly warmed. There hasn't been a good rock threesome since the wonderful Kings X, but upstate New Yorkers Super 400 - two young men and, lawdy, a woman - are certainly heading in the right direction. If their creative, muso approach to heavy rock, with its tempo changes and long, almost psychedelic jams (Closer Day Bye Day clocks in at an epic 12 minutes) eerily recall the 'forementioned Kings X at times, it's because they're probably drawing on the same influences: primitive trios The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Cream have a lot answer for here. Elsewhere, Super 400's textured rock'n'blues sounds a lot like a modern-day Free, only a tad more brutal (Dreamboat especially), and The Black Crowes, only less stoned (the fine Hitch A Ride). One to watch.
