The EP "Killerbites" has been met with fantastic reviews.

Hysteria Mag gave Killerbites 8/10 and said "he has crafted something remarkable in Killerbites.", "He could play Falls Festival one night and a Day on the Green the next."

"The EP is a collection of six songs featuring honest and artful songwriting, incredible guitars and precision production. These tunes have a ferocity and tautness, which skillfully convey all the feelings of growing and maturing, with passionate melodies and blistering guitars." - The AU Review

Featured in Australian Guitar Magazine as a "Guitarist to Watch", Marcus has well and truly earned his title.
