8/10
I really love the blending of sounds in this record. Its this noisy mess thats all over the place, while still maintaining my interest with all sorts of angular ideas. Im more of a Deceit fan myself, and find this album to have some slightly overwhelming moments in comparison, but I cant deny the entertainment value I get from the dark atmosphere

8/10
A mood album. Portions of it match the sheer breahtaking soul of Talk Talks best work and the pure intimacy of the arrangements make it a soothing listen. The problem is there isnt really a huge standout moment and it takes a while to grow on you, but as a full listen on a Sunday morning, its hard to do better.

9/10
Hums best work. Im a sucker for a good riff, and this album is full of those. In a way, it feels like the logical conclusion of 90s rock to me, a mature melding of shoegaze, grunge, and all sorts of good stuff. Its just so hard for me not to love songs that are this immediate and likeable.
