“You might be quite surprised to discover that Vex are some long obscured treasure of progressive, moody melodic death/black/thrash metal that seems rather uncanny hailing from Texas, one of the brutal death capitals of the States. Here we’ve got something well off the beaten path, even though the stones paving said path have been lifted from more frequently traveled concourses.” – From the Dust Returned
“There is an emotional depth and reserved wisdom to the band’s songwriting which speaks of a forgotten style of black/death metal; the kind practiced by such genre forefathers as Dissection, Rotting Christ or Mortuary Drape.” – Metal Army America
