"This CD is powerful and definitely ranks high amongst genre staples like The Cocteau Twins, Pornography era Cure and Joy Division. This is just so, so good." -UNDER THE VOLCANO
"Lisa's operatic voice soars to heights and depths of beauty and darkness that even Lisa Gerrard of Dead Can Dance would be jealous of. And, Eric's arrangements are what almost every Goth band aspires to do. I could go through track by track and point out the greatness of each one, but that just isn't necessary here. There aren't too many discs that go through my player that merit this kind of praise, but every track here is truly splendid." - DARK VELVET MAGAZINE
"Delving into the softer side of the gothic scene is Mors Syphilitica's latest offering, entitled Primrose. Imagine music by The Cure circa early 80's with female vocals ALA the classical Carmina Burana. Primrose is simultaneously beautiful and driving. Lisa Hammer's vocals are literally haunting. Mors Syphilitica is one of the best new gothic bands on the scene. Those who are attracted to both the vital, dark energy of The Cure and the lilting, otherworldly vocals of Dead Can Dance will thrive on this stuff," -HORROR ONLINE MUSIC REVIEWS
