‘In Contact is a finely tuned, inventive effort that bristles with crystal-sharp clarity.’ Metal Hammer UK

‘Those who may have despaired that progressive metal had succumbed to regression will find solace in this, the band’s finest album to date.’ Prog Mag UK
‘In short, In Contact is a masterpiece. This album sets new standards, both for themselves and for progressive heavy music in general. In Contact is a work of unimaginable beauty.’ The Music
‘Caligula’s Horse are definitely making fresh music and carrying the torch for progressive music into the future.’ Metal Wani
‘an astounding effort, making it one of the year’s best progressive metal records thus far.’ Metal Injection
