Dream Pariah is infectious it possesses something wholesome, but a track like The Narcissist is an absolute perfect thrash attack. All in all, Trainwreck Architect hang around the fringes of the thrash scene without going totally into it with both feet, they enhance their sound with some modern touches and have mastered their recorded sound. This is a rather decent album and worth anybodys money. Brutalism.com
it is a pure primal architect of aggression. Please continue to knock us out and feed us those sweating bullets. Metal Temple
What listeners will get from this album is a strong blend of traditional heavy metal mixed with a strong dose of thrash. The best thing about the music is the twin guitar harmonies, slick and technical solos, and the occasional burst of groove. In the end, the band proves that NWOBHM-style music still has legs. Simon Ouellets vocals definitely bring to mind an old school-style, mixing high pitched wails, clean articulation, and thrash-inspired aggression the guitar licks and grooves really shine, ranging from strong and infectious to slick and polished. Better still, the track As Killers Breathe includes a solo from the legendary Jeff Waters (of Annihilator) that is well worth a listen. Listeners that enjoy an older style of heavy metal will appreciate the way this band nods to the old school while also trying to keep things fresh and new. Sea of Tranquility
Other than featuring a very cool album cover (there is a nice backpiece tattoo in there somewhere), this lot turn in some fine tunes for us with their Traits of the Sick recording. Instrumental shredding (Comatose Era), punk/thrash workouts ( The Door Slams Shut, Deadbeat Beatdown, The Narcissist, and Feed Them Bullets), and plenty of no-holds-barred Metal boogie .heavy guitars, lots of heavy drums lets face it, this is heavy everything. So, if youre into the heavy stuff, heres a great place to start! Wyrd Ways
Each track is an individual burst of gunfire riffing and dito vocals, and the band sound very true and natural that it fair brings a tear of nostalgia to your eye. Bassist Eric Litinas and drummer Marc-Antoine Blackburn form two natural focus points as they work hard and sound tight throughout the album. RockUnited
A nice blend of elements from around the metal universe wrapped in melodic thrash metal, Trainwreck Architects Traits of the Sick is nicely eclectic and sophisticated, and should appeal to fans of Death Angel, Anthrax and Annihilator. Metal Music Archives
Direct and incisive, the Thrash of TRAINWRECK ARCHITECT has all to conquer you! Metal Integral
Whatever youre looking for in a metal album, these guys serve it up, moving from thrash, to classic metal, to rock, with even a slight punk edge at times. All these sounds combined could potentially have been a trainwreck (haha, Im so funny), but these guys pull it off, and not only pull it off, but do it excellently. This album is for fans of all metal genres. My suggestion to everyone is to throw on your dirtiest jean jacket, get a 12-pack of your favourite cheap beer, and give this record a listen. You will not be disappointed. Bucket List Music Reviews
The approach that Trainwreck Architect have to their music is powerful and distinctive, it reaches out and touches the listener with its honesty. This is what these guys were born to do and no one will stop them from reaching their total heavy metal dominance. Suffice to say the future seems bright for these guys and I could see them and their unique sound going far. If you want to hear more of their unclassable metal madness be sure to check out their new record Traits of the Sick! Two Guys Metal Reviews
One favorite is probably The Killers Breathe , featuring Jeff Waters (Annihilator) on guitar solos. But we can not also fail to mention the most eared as Dream Pariah . To finish the double T he Narcissistand Feed Them Bullets continues to charge massive doses of pure aggression and lasts well established in the voracity of demonic vocals always well supported by portentous riffs. So, for all those who enjoy a good dose of primordial metal full of aggression and nostalgia, but also with some fun Rock to the mix, Traits OF The Sick is always a safe bet. Rock N Heavy
Traits Of The Sick an engaging and entertaining listen. Planet Mosh
This album is a perfect blend of pure metal, very well done! Quebec Metal
Trainwreck Architect has their own diverse style that is hard to compare to other bands and this album proves it. Traits of the Sick is definitely an album worth giving a listen to. The Scene Magazine
These architects of heavy pay homage to roots metal bands such as Dio and maple leaf legends, Annihilator, while adding popular loud sounds of today. Louder Than Hell
This is one of those albums that surprises you with how great they sound; one that you dont expect to blow you away, but after having a listen youre left gobsmacked. If you dont mind a bit of a modern twist on your traditional thrash and heavy metal music then this would be perfect for you. Recommended. Louder Than Hell

Tearing up the stage from the moment the first chord is struck, the room is packed and the crowd is just as revved up as the band. Note after note tears through the air and charges the crowd and the band with a fury. Simon Ouellet bounces off stage with a roar and flies into the crowd and they love it. The band members are everywhere wreaking complete havoc and feeding their hungry fans. Technically precise and experienced they want this bad and after all of this, they deserve it! They are a well oiled machine and to comment on them individually would only blaspheme their sound as one entity and deplete the value of their clearly hard work. They break out into a tune tributed to the 80s metal scene and it certainly does the decade justice. As Simon puts his shades to his face we take a train ride back in time and this is anything BUT a train wreck!!! Ondes Chocs
Bands like Crossitution and Trainwreck Architect are blowing my mind in terms of talent, performance and initiative (as they are both unsigned) Any metalhead who respects himself must listen to Trainwreck Architect Bang Bang Blog
Let me tell you I had great expectations, since when doing some researches, Ive read this on the bands website: The meaning behind the band name is Intelligently creating destruction and chaos and we plan on putting that in your face when it comes to live performance. I can confirm they were not lying!..The singers voice is powerful and impressive, and the band members are full of energy. They offer Heavy metal with various influences. Quebec Daily Rock
full of energy and stage presence, Trainwreck blasted their signature thrashy classic metal tones out to the crowd, causing probably the best moshing of the night. Trainwreck plays with their whole hearts, and has a great sound as far as aural enjoyment is concerned. They are tight and I simply cant wait to see how far these boys go. Montreal Music Scene
Trainwreck Architect has shown once again they feel like home on stage ! The singer, Simon Ouellet, opened the show by saying : Dont be fooled by the haircut, this isnt an NSync tribute band!. The band is really at ease on stage and their compositions are really catchy. Thorium Magazine
I really enjoyed their hard rock attitude, coupled with a more modern metal edge, and was really into Midnight Bitch which is a really catchy tune. The Scene Magazine
Excellent set, super tight. You know how to deal with the public, you have confidence, you know what youre doing! – Bart Frydrychowicz Quo Vadis
You Guys really kicked ass. That was tight, That was powerful, a fucking machine. Great frontman, and Ive never heard a band introduced like that before. I love the band you guys are awesome. – Vinnie Appice Kill Devil Hill, DIO, Black Sabbath
The whole job of a frontman, in my opinion, is You wanna watch that guy, and you wanna hang out with that guy. I wanna hang out with you! Ive never heard anyone introduce a band that originally and that well You guys came to win. Fantastic job, one of the best bands so far in the contest. I do feel for the band that has to follow that I have to be honest Jason Rockman CHOM FM
I really loved your punk rock attitude. I think the crowd reaction said it all. Greenland Productions would feel comfortable booking you anytime. You rock, pretty cool! – Vincent Lafrenaye Lamontage Greenland Productions
Well, I have to say I really love your singer; the way he uses to set the notes and the words is so cool! The best songs to me are Dream Pariah and Rabid Psychotic Relapse, because the first one is very catchy and second one is extremely heavy. – Carlos Cantatore Former Annihilator Drummer
