Um útgávuna Vendetta sigur danski tónleikajournalisturin Peter Krogholm soleiðis á heimasíðuni All Scandinavian, sum hevur undirheitið Dedicated to bring Scandinavian music to you:
 
When I first featured 200 in a SpaceScan back in 2009, they described their music as “‘In the Ghetto’ meets Motörhead as played by the Sex Pistols” with the lyrical side of things concerned with satirical punches to the face of Faroese politics, homophobia, Christian fundamentalism and Faroese independence from the Danish Empire (“empire” was a big word then and it still is, to be perfectly honest). I still don’t understand Faroese, but I was told that ‘Við Love Skuldu Vit Land Byggja’ is a heartfelt Fuck You! to the political right sympathies dominating public debate these days, so nothing new there I guess, and even though time inevitably do change people (and therefore bands) I don’t think I offend anybody by saying that their own and old description still is quite fitting with ‘Vendetta’and ‘Makka Rætt’ two prime examples. Recommended tracks: Makka Rætt – Við Love Skuldu Vit Land Byggja – Brúka Tína Makt – Til Lukku – Vendetta.
