Dr. Zilch is one of those special bands that have an intense pioneering mood in their blood. So, there is no chance for them to settle, relax and just copy successful recipes or walk in the boots of their beloved bands.
If you think you can make a journey inside a twisted mind and into a decadent world, then Dr. Zilch could be a really nice guide for you... (8/10)

Dr. Zilch is a very special band as I see it.
They are really up to create something new and something special with their newest release "A Little Taste of Hell vol.1 - The Way Down".
This band creates very strange music combining different moods and sounds in order to create something new and special, and they actually succeeded long way. (78/100).

(…) Dr. Zilch have developed their own personal style. Rough and merciless, they earn someone’s attention from his first contact with the CD. No matter what, the listener gets lost somewhere between reality and Dr. Zilch’s digital hell.
Dr. Zilch is surely a band you have to check out. Excellent (4/5)

Technically perfect with great songs and production, "A Little Taste of Hell" has it all for being a good surprise to any fan of good music.
Even if Bjorn Engelmann (famous by working with bands such as Rammstein, In Flames, Hypocrisy, Backyard Babies, among others) wouldn’t have mastered this album, it would still be an excellent record.
It’s just missing a video-clip of the irresistible “Games of Wonder”. (8/10)

(…) a whiff of fresh air in the Portuguese music scene.
Dr. Zilch represents the new generation of Hybrid-Metal bands with a lot of different influences.

Isabel Machado in "Blast!" 2005/11 (PT)

Mixing Metal / Industrial with Electronica, Dr. Zilch creates an absolutely incredible ambient that brings me back to computer game landscapes (…)
(…) I recommend listening "Superchrist" and "Made in Hell". In those songs, the band fully explodes the whole of their aggressiveness and geniality.
(…) in my opinion, "A Little Taste of Hell" is one of the best Portuguese releases this year. (9/10)

Dr. Zilch keeps playing an Industrial Metal full of melody and Techno details with clean and harsh vocals. The groove given to the songs by those powerful guitars is incredible.
"Games of Wonder" has a great radio airplay potential but it’s definitely not a ‘plastic’ song (…)
This is an excellent return of Dr. Zilch (…) (8/10)

This second album is still having the best of what a Metal band can do. The most Industrial side of Dr. Zilch is still there as well.
In "A Little Taste of Hell Vol.1", the guitars are heavier than before and the Samplers are neglected to the background most of the times.
The songs are full of catchy choruses like the one in "Games of Wonder".
This record is a proof that we should look at Dr. Zilch with respect.

Games of Wonder

Very well balanced and catchy enough, "Games of Wonder" fits perfectly to radio airplay (…)
Maintaining their own musical style, this song goes through a melancholic Electro-Industrial ambient ending up in a slow and heavy Glam Rock (simple but completely addictive) chorus.
(…) Dr. Zilch keeps on making great songs. (7/10)

(…) an excellent guitar performance and Nuno Fadigas vocals kicking ass.

The production done to this song is excellent (…)

Promo 2002

(…) The "Xutos & Pontapés" cover song "Homem do Leme" is a master piece! (…)

The Questioning Worm

(…) The 2nd single from "Artcore XXI" is out now. "Artcore XXI" is the Dr. Zilch’s concept album I told you about in the Inside last issue.
I’m talking about the brilliant "The Questioning Worm".
Yes, brilliant and powerful over the limits in its true meaning! (…) (5/5)

Pedro Alves in "Inside" 1999/12 (PT)

Artcore XXI

Dr. Zilch’s debut album is bombastic! (...) It’s a whiff of fresh air for the Portuguese heavy rock scene.
This is a really powerful record that deserves our highest score. Congratulations! (10/10)

Cameraman Metálico in "Raio X" and "Capital" 1999/10 (PT)

Dr. Zilch is the new big thing in the Portuguese music industry.
Their new kind of techno-metal puts them right in the front line of the Portuguese music production.
(…) Dr. Zilch’s debut album congregates all the newest techno-metal tendencies. This hybrid style is much as heavy as danceable.
The first single "Flesh getting higher" is a song that fits perfectly between Prodigy’s "Smack my Bitch Up" and Marilyn Manson’s "Beautiful People" in the most alternative dance clubs play lists.

Gustavo Vidal in "Voice" 1999/10 (PT)

Flesh Getting Higher

They call themselves zilch (nothing) but they worth a lot!
This first single seems to announce new stars in the Portuguese music scene. (…) Dr. Zilch gives us something completely different. It’s a fusion between metal, techno and avant-garde electronica with enough quality to bring shame on some of the bands appearing in Spawn soundtrack.
(…) "Human Shaped God" is fantastic. It seems to be taken right out of Marilyn Manson’s "Antichrist Superstar". This makes any praise unnecessary.
If the upcoming "Artcore XXI" would share the same qualities of this single, it must be one of the greatest records of ’99 for sure. (4,5/5)
