about

“Il disco di The Rip è decisamente notevole e, inoltre, una vera ‘chicca’ per noi ‘depressi cronici’ ma non aspettatevi che sia una cura, anzi… “ (Ver Sacrum)

“The Rip se profilent avec un certain talent dans la lignée des héritiers de Joy Division et The Cure; leur cold wave minimale rythmée par une boîte sèche (peut-être un brin trop synthétique) faisant la part belle aux basses ronflantes, sombres (c'est d'ailleurs la spécialité des Italiens, deux basses et pas de guitare), soutenues par des synthés pesants, flâne parfois carrément aux limites du gothic rock sans jamais perdre ses teintes nocturnes, hypnotiques” (Guts Of Darkness)

“Últimamente en Italia no hacen más que aparecer proyectos interesantes, muchos de ellos centrados además en la parte más oscura y melancólica de la influencia ochentera. Los amantes de los bajos pastosos, las voces con eco, los ritmos lentos, la tristeza infinita, el otoño y el invierno, el gris lápida, la niebla o la llovizna helada, estamos de enhorabuena. The Rip son otro ejemplo de todo esto cuando está bien hecho, otra muestra más que de “Music to die for” (que también), “Music to die with”. Muy recomendables. “ (La Letra Capital)
