  4. ^ Leahey, Andrew. "To Plant a Seed – We Came as Romans". AllMusic. Retrieved 3 September 2015. [The] first full-length release by We Came as Romans is a hardcore album with a twist. ... Those looking to bang their head will still find plenty of traditional hardcore elements here, particularly the horror-movie screaming of frontman Dave Stevens, but To Plant a Seed is more concerned with establishing the band's unique identity.
