"Attika7 set which delivered on their mantra of hard metal. Rusty Coones delivers on his wish to put together a band that could support the tunes he wrote while doing time. Attika 7 does not mess around this band is pure play till the bottle of Jack is gone rock n roll. It’s as if that special hard rock DNA is implanted in this band,prison time, choopers, even some level of celebrity. Atttika7 only suffered from too brief a set. Rusty looked like he was just getting into it." — Musink 2011 OC
"If the bands Rob Zombie and Black Sabbath were to have a spawn the mighty Attika 7 would be it! It is very surreal to see a band you have watch work its way up the ranks in this industry. From the club scene to Rockstar Uproar, and Musink. Also with the track “Greed and Power” featured in an episode of the hit FX show Sons of Anarchy. Fronted by singer Jay Rexx and axe grinder Rusty Attika 7 was a great fit into this years Musink. Into the Blackness opened the set for Attika 7 followed by Hellbound, Greed and Power, and Serial Killer. All tracks listed can be found on itunes, definitely a great e.p. to add to your library. Along with not only having a talent of playing guitar, Rusty is a custom chopper builder (Illusion Motorsports) and had an exhibit of some of OC’s finest custom choppers to view. Keep your eyes and ears open! Attika 7 will be riding down the highway to a town near you!" — Ryan Espinoza, MUSINK Tattoo & Music Festival – Day 1 – 3/4/2011
