Album Notes & Community Reviews

Retreating slightly from the chaotic clamor of their earlier work, the British group leans into a remarkably dark, cinematic aesthetic. The album relies on ominous, blues-drenched guitar twang, maracas, and James Johnston's sinister baritone to conjure a murky, swamp-rock atmosphere.

Genres

Descriptors: atmospheric, brutal, menacing, tense, cavernous, noisy, distorted, moody
