“Derek Bailey meets Morbid Angel in the sci-fi shredding of Ava Mendoza and power trio Unnatural Ways... Mendoza’s riffs and solos bounce across the sonic landscape, sometimes shredding but just as frequently pulling from surf music or the industrial psychedelia of Chrome. The lyrics combine two types of alien imagery: the immigrant/emigrant type, and the extraterrestrial... Her voice is a clean post-punk wail of the Sioixsie/Savages school...”

–The Wire

"Unnatural Ways is a vehicle through which master guitarist Ava Mendoza showcases her wide-ranging abilities as a musician. With the group's first two largely instrumental releases in the bag, they've turned the focus on the shredder's voice for their upcoming third LP 'The Paranoia Party'... A spastic, fuzzy exercise in combining noise-rock motifs with off-kilter timing and a vocal performance that calls up goth-punk godmother Siouxsie Sioux... Pure, noisy ear candy."
–Revolver

"Unnatural Ways‘ new album, 'The Paranoia Party,' is a weird record for weird times... From skronky noise rock stomp to post-rock-esque crescendos to explosive metallic bursts and all-around top-notch musicianship. 'The Paranoia Party' is a unique beast and one that will likely yield new surprises and details for many more listens."
–Decibel

"Unnatural Ways deliver an epic head trip via newest batch of intense psych metal... Crafting a work that operates on as many levels as 'The Paranoia Party' is no small task, but Unnatural Ways founder and renowned guitarist Ava Mendoza proves more than ready... They’ve put a variety of cosmically slanted styles through a blender and laced the result with an earthy intensity, allowing for the listener to find the shining points of commonality between jazzy metal and heavy noise rock."
