"The Voice of an angel with the sound of Rock. The music provided is that of going to an opera house and seeing a play. The work of Craig on Bass and Larry on guitar is right on target with the symphonic rock of great acts like “Dream Theater”. As you listen to the work of both of these gentlemen you cannot help but to compare them to Dream Theater, the melodic sounds they provide beg you to want them to play more. Then to the focal point….Ashley herself, not many words can provide what she brings to the stage. A comparison was made to Sarah Brightman……which is dead on, her vocal range combined with the piano work and bass and guitar work behind her also could take to the comparison path of Evanescence. Although most bands would not like comparisons, this bands comparisons are that of some top notch performer’s, and nonetheless Worhol is in that same category. I say be on the lookout for them as they take stages across not just the US, but the world. There will be no disappointment, there will just be a world class show featuring some of the best performer’s that Texas has to provide."

- Rich Kaos (Neue Regel Radio)

"When you hear people speak about Worhol you will hear many things. Words usually associated with the band are, talented, incredible and amazing. More often you will hear Worhol described as "Destined", "Next Big Thing" or "Soon To Be Signed" No matter what you hear one thing rings true, Worhol is extremely talented with a sound and live performance that puts them shoulder to shoulder with some of the biggest bands in the world. Fans of Nightwish, Evanescence and Within Temtation will all feel at home with Worhol, but prepare yourselves because Worhol raises the bar. Ashleys vocals backed by the band have her poised to become one of the biggest female singers in her genre on a global scale. Worhol is without a doubt destined for greatness! Recently we where able to sit down with this very busy band and find out what makes them tick and what they have instore for everyone."

- Michael Kehoe (Metal Onslaught Magazine)

Shows of symphonic rock group Worhol are a visual feast, complete with theatrical stage props and opulent clothing - they put the show back into rock show, and we are honored they chose to use some of our clothes to create the dark and majestic look they have on stage."

- Daniel Meyer (Owner of Black Angel Clothing)

"One of Houston's hardest working originals bands! Ashley puts a lot of time and energy in all of her shows, a great mix of good rock music, good theatrics, topped off with strong vocals, lyrics and great musicianship from all members. There is no doubt that Worhol is one of Houston's best original bands!"

- Alex Lozano (Writer for Music News)

"The father-daughter band, Worhol, first came to Sonic Cathedral’s attention through our roving Jim Wilkinson, who caught one of their local Texas shows. He was swept up by their music and stage presence, so when their The Awakening debut hit the streets, we didn’t waste any time in chatting with Ashley Worhol (vocals) and Larry Worhol (guitars) to find out more. Dive in for a behind the scenes look at The Awakening, Worhol’s upcoming video, bouncing back when the inevitable tour disaster strikes, and much more!"

- Robin Stryker (Editor for Sonic Cathedral)

"It was more along the lines of Tommy-esque rock opera; with the story being played out, not only in the music, but as well as on stage with Ashley acting out the story."

- Richard Roesler (All Access Music News)

"Such a beautiful album that is packed with delicious rhythms and creative textures that build the bands reputation to being an all-out winner! The music washes over the body but embraces it in a warm endeavor which makes listening all the more exciting. It twists and turns majestically and yet fueled by a darker underbelly that captivates and allows images to be created. From elegant melodies to more hearty and extravagant moments there is so much to enjoy within each track. I can only imagine Summon’s shock at witnessing this band live and feel perplexed that I cannot witness the same live, unless the band decide take a step closer to the UK. The provocative structures of each track are carved beautifully and hold that rich tenacity that you want to savour over and over again. It’s gripping and punchy and yet calm and thoughtful and caresses the ears in a warm glow and also boasts a catchiness that stirs and swamps the audial with a rich and invigorating success. This album has everything and more besides and for all the people living in the confines of Texas are truly lucky to be able to experience a band with so much sophistication and alluring appeal."

- Pagan Hel ( Editor for Crimson Moon Zine)

The main thing that stands out and hits me throughout this opening track are Ashley’s vocals. Her voice is spellbinding and sends shivers down my spine, especially when she reaches the higher vocal ranges. It’s an album that you find yourself wanting to listen to repeatedly and Ashley’s vocals really grab your attention, drawing you in."

- Chris Palmer (Metal Gods TV)

"Houston has been without a really good goth metal act besides Silenced Within forever, and it's nice to have some new blood in the mix."

- Jef Rouner (Houston Press)

And darkness was upon the land. All that was, was no more. The land lay wasted in ruins. No words were spoken. No songs were sung. Music was in a state of chaos. Its direction unknown. But one day, in the forest and through the trees, a voice came calling. Calling from above. Calling for “The Awakening”. The wind carried the voice throughout the land in hopes that it would be heard. When all had seem to fail, there stirred a movement in the ashes. And from the ashes arose a strong and powerful group of musicians called “Worhol”.

An era of music that would be expressed in the creation of multiple personalities. The rebirth of the long lost heart filled lyrics. The memory of mesmerizing melodies. The rhythms of thunder in the night. Arise to “The Awakening”. Listen to its voice. An army of chosen ones who would bring forth to the land a new and inspirational voice in music. Thou shall be Awakened!
