Review by Luminous Dash Muziekzine: Chiron – The Sun Goes Down
https://luminousdash.be/reviews/chiron-the-sun-goes-down/
“For post-punk fans who love the typical Joy Division sound, but also the early work of Clock DVA (we were reminded of their first album, Thirst, at times). A beautiful gothic, new wave sound…”
Review by Black Online: Chiron – The Sun Goes Down

“a subtle pull quickly develops, one that’s hard to resist, making this album an early highlight of the still-young year 2022!”
Review by Side-Line: Chiron – The Sun Goes Down
https://www.side-line.com/chiron-the-sun-goes-down-album-dark-vinyl/
“It’s great to get a new album of Chiron, which is a band mixing good-old Cold-Wave influences together with a more personal and evasive approach. I especially like the debut of the work revealing great, icy guitar riffs joined by similar Electronic arrangements.”
Review by Ascension Magazine: Chiron – The Sun Goes Down
https://ascensionmagazine.wixsite.com/zine/single-post/recensione-chiron-the-sun-goes-down
“Focused on themes such as isolation, loneliness and the loss of someone/something, “The Sun Goes Down” is certainly the darkest work in the pur Chiron’s sparse discography, a difficult album that challenges the listener, track after track.”
Review by Regen Magazine: Chiron – The Sun Goes Down
https://regenmag.com/reviews/review-chiron-the-sun-goes-down/
“The Sun Goes Down is a fine effort from a band that possesses a unique voice in the genre, bearing all its hallmarks, yet standing in a league of its own; here’s hoping the next Chiron record won’t take another seven years.“

Review by Altvenger: Chiron – Breaking Point EP
https://www.altvenger.com/chiron-breaking-point-ep-album-review/
“Just play it and you’ll get sucked in the synthetic magic of Chiron. We almost wrote essential, because we are addicted indeed!”
Review by Peel A Boo Magazine: Chiron – Eve
http://www.peek-a-boo-magazine.be/en/reviews/chiron-eve/
“The album (I almost wrote the word “classic”, and why not?) ends with Hate. The song has a real anger, and if PIL and Nine Inch Nails would make a baby, then this could be it! Eve…is well, a classic album!”
Review by Altvenger: Chiron – The Best Of
https://www.altvenger.com/chiron-the-best-of-album-review/
“Eve is there to announce the band’s sound evolution, suggesting more electronic sounds in future; it is dark, more experimental and electronic, like some of the future work of Chiron. We can hear that shift towards a more experimental sound that flirts with electronica and more complex influences on “Distorted”; using elements from techno, again hearing a great contribution of Robert Anthony.”
Review by Peel A Boo Magazine: Chiron – We Own The Night
http://www.peek-a-boo-magazine.be/en/reviews/chiron-we-own-the-night/
“We Own The Night is surely not Chiron as you know it, as this is a complete different (dance) side of the band. That’s what people call evolution, or just the will to try something else as too many bands make 20 albums of the same kind. Not Chiron.”

Review by Spectrum Magazine Issue 3 1999: Chiron(Aus) “Eve” CD ENERGEIA
https://spectrummagarchive.wordpress.com/reviews/spectrum-magazine-issue-3-review-archive/
“… this is high class gothic rock with enough pop sentiments to be highly accessible coming across as fresh and catchy, being far removed from the standard goth groups wallowing in there self imposed misery and depression….all for the sake of image.”
