[6] Harm's Way drummer Chris Mills commented on the band's early days and progression, stating: "We'd play super fast powerviolence songs, and our singer would put on a mask and sing silly lyrics about beating up frat boys or whatever.

"[1] Harm's Way released several albums, EPs and singles through Organized Crime Records and Closed Casket Activities in their early days.

[7] Harm's Way released the EP Blinded on July 23, 2013 featuring artwork by Florian Bertmer,[5] and promoted it with a music video for the track "Mind Control" followed by a world tour.

Writing for Rock Sound, Chris Hidden gave the album an eight-out-of-ten, and said: "This new record finds them in formidable form, with the likes of 'Amongst The Rust' and 'Cancerous Ways' blending the down-tuned riff attack of nu metal with groove-led thrash and the crushing intensity of hardcore to produce a sound that references everyone from Sepultura to Trapped Under Ice.

[16] After the album release and a February–March US tour, Luca Cimarusti wrote for the Chicago Reader, "...they’ve finally fully realized their fascination with [Godflesh].

"[17] A year later, Harm's Way released a four-song EP titled PSTHMN featuring industrial remixes of songs from Posthuman.
