Here is a review taken from the Cross of Iron Fanzine #1 (1988):
IDLE THREAT is a fairly new band on the New York metal scene. Their demo tape, Elmo Rocks, is a beautiful recording (8 track) and sports three tunes, none of which sound the same. The first track, "Claws", has a distinct'70s sound and riffs away. Their next track, "Run Away", is [gasp! -Eds] a love song [taboo! taboo! -Eds]. Yeah, that's right, an honest to God metal love song (and it ain't bad either). The last track, "Victim of Yourself", is a definite basher. This is a good demo but there's just one smaaaall problem: the vocals. Really high-pitched [2600 Hz? -Eds] nasal whines that have an effect similar to that of dog whistles. Other than that, the tape is a steal at a mere $2.00.
