* "As it turns out, Schoenbergian atonality goes together with death metal like flies and bad meat. Ehnahre's unfailing dissonance and inherent instability become addictive by album's end, in the same way that the best horror flicks keep us watching -- Ehnahre are masters of creeping tension, the kind that might linger and disappear in its own ether or suddenly ignite (or both, as in "Part IV"). It's rare for a metal band to possess a vision this wide-ranging without compromising its pitch-black core. The Man Closing Up may prove too demanding to inspire many followers, but that's metal's problem, not Ehnahre's. This is way beyond state-of-the-art."

* "Out there in the borderlands between contemporary composition and avant-progressive-doom metal, the debut album from Boston (US) five-piece Ehnahre is bleak, harshly beautiful and very deep... The Man Closing Up feels like a continuous train of thought, with its intriguing snatches of text - and yes, it is a concept album, based on the writings of Donald Justice. It hangs together in a satisfying whole, evolving through its own kind of unique tension, with orchestral instruments and classical female vocals in the final part suggesting the album Celtic Frost should have made after To Mega Therion? - but didn't. It reveals more in each listen, going places others hardly dream of."
