| "...Unusually for a young group, the musicians do not set out to impress the listener with overtly complex arrangements and self-indulgent solos, the emphasis being placed more on trying to find ways of achieving non-verbal communication, aiming to create and sustain a feel throughout each composition. That is not to say that the group don't know how to rock out, tracks such as From Where The Wind Blows and, in particular 888 and RUNNN contain moments that shake the cobwebs from the eaves. The twin lead guitars bear resemblance to early Wishbone Ash with each instrument plotting its own course yet never straying far enough from the central theme to become antagonistic..." - by MARK HUGHES of Dutch Progressive Rock Page (Feb 2006). more | |

| "Very good, all-instrumental, post-rock/progressive dual guitar, bass and drums band from Russia, who add other instruments as well as needed. Really pro sound and packaging. Sometimes this is like a cross between Djam Karet and Yang!" WAYSIDE MUSIC (November 2005) | |

| "Infront is slowly becoming one of my all-time favorite instrumental bands, tied with Djam Karet. This is one of the few new bands that I fondly look forward to hearing more from. Wordless is by far one of the more enjoyable instrumental debuts that I've heard in many years. It’s really needs to be owned by fans of the aforementioned genres. So what are you waiting for?" - Ron Fuchs of ProgNaut.com (January 2006). more | |
| Wordless is a classy instrumental prog rock album that never is complicated for its own sake, but uses its virtuosity in the context of the very accessible songwriting, and thus guarantees pleasant moments of intelligent music.- disagreement.net (LUXEMBOURG) (June 2006) more | |

| "Russia always had great interpreters and creators in classical music; thus it is not surprising finding there excellent musicians being able to produce such a gorgeous music" Acid Dragon (April 2006) more | |

| "This one has been growing on me in leaps and bounds. I haven't been this jazzed about a record in this genre since 2003's superb offering by Hungary's Inkabb Holnapp. Infront offers their own unique style of music and shouldn't be immediately compared the latter, but I think fans of that disc would find plenty to enjoy on this one. This may be a late addition to my top 10 of 2005. Worth a listen!" - by Yves Dube of SEA OF TRANQUILITY (December 2005). more | |

| "La Russie montre des dents, le rock-progressif est excellent en ce moment la-bas. INFRONT comme c'est ecrit dans la presentation du groupe, est un rock-progressif heavy avec une certaine part de fusion et des moments teinte de rock-alternatif... 'Wordless', surement parce que cet album ne contient aucunes paroles, il faut entendre, c'est un excellent cd. Bonne ecoute." - by Denis Taillefer of PROG LANDS (November 2005) more | |

| "Je verwacht misschien niet onmiddellijk progressieve ontwikkelingen in het land dat we kennen van tsaren en wodka, Rusland. Toch is er een heuse groep verrezen die het midden zoekt van hardrock, progmetal en onvervalste progressieve elementen, die qua sfeersetting niet zelden de kant van Camel op gaat, met de forse kanttekening dat het gitaarwerk maar mondjesmaat op het geluid van Andy Latimer lijkt. Toch zetten de gitaristen een zeer bevredigende prestatie neer. Ook probeert de jonge band zich verre te houden van het ‘hard geschreeuw en weinig wol’ principe. Daarmee stuit ik frontaal op het gevoel voor detail!" - by Ton Veldhuis of PROGWERELD (January 2006) | |
| "Intellegent, dynamic, and not agressive instrumental music." - by Andrei Silvestrov of UTRO.RU (November 2005). | |
