"...The foreboding, bass-driven sound of the Purgatory Hill Harp brought me back down to reality. I've never believed in purgatory, but there are qualities of purgatory here in this world. In the dirty, stomp blues, I saw this world as "purgatory on earth," a waiting room where we wait through struggles and suffering, waiting to be saved from the dark, brooding, foreboding tones of this world... But we can't be overconfident in our ability to make this world heavenly. This world is filled with the dark blues of sin. We can't be lifted out of those blues by our own actions. Our ‘heaven on earth’ goals are stunted by ‘purgatory on earth’ reality..."

-Rev. Benjamin C. Squires, Manitowoc Herald-Times Reporter, 7/21/07
