Album Notes & Community Reviews
The fourth album from the British trailblazers is one of their darkest, most challenging, and compositionally mature works. 'Grievances' sees the band leaning into a more atmospheric and experimental art-rock direction, weaving moments of haunting, jazz-inflected beauty between their signature bursts of chaotic, technical mathcore. It's a dynamic and deeply anxious record that showcases their unparalleled ability to navigate musical extremes.
