Haywire | Remixes 1:2 (RIR 5028) RELEASED BY REVERSE IMAGE - April 2005
|  |
- "State of Being’s 'Haywire Remixes 1:2' is well produced and is a smart, club-friendly follow-up to Haywire ... Sure to draw attention for both State of Being and the remixing artists."
- Review by: Shaun Phelps (Chain D.L.K.)
- "...a captivating and potent blend of industrial, goth, electronica and hi-definition techo-rock. State of Being has always been a sophisticated, family affair... and so are the remixes from their 2004 effort, Haywire."

Haywire (RIR 6027) RELEASED BY REVERSE IMAGE - June 2004
|  |
- "a stew of hard rock or nu-psychedelica... further synth-refined into a concoction deserving of its own slick classification -- aggro-indie." - Eric W. Saeger (Skope Magazine / Mouvement Nouveau)
- "...an emotionally touching roller-coaster ride between powerful and sentimental moments." - Breda (VIRUS!)
- "I was blown away by the opening title track, 'Haywire'... Play the 4th track, 'Whitespace,' real loud and feel the megacool synthesizer beat in your body - not to mention the awesome acoustic-based chorus. This is what I call hyperintelligent music!" - Melodic.net
- "Never before (have we) come across such a 'Down in the Dungeon' mixture of raw emotion, form and nail biting lyrical intelligence." - Sonic Sedition
