Sep 30, 2016Gloomy, grey but definitely not dull, The Wytches have cast another stellar spell.
-
MojoSep 28, 2016It benefits from producer Jim Sclavunos's emphasis on a place-you-in-the-room live approach, bringing the dark to labelmates Temples' light, as Heavenly's neo-psych vanguard marches onwards. [Nov 2016, p.94]
-
Sep 28, 2016It demands your attention, grabbing your head by the hair and forcing you to listen.
-
Sep 28, 2016The album is a challenging listen but there's plenty of craft here, making it an improvement upon their debut.
-
Oct 17, 2016The Wytches mesh of sound is the musical embodiment of sixties surf dressed in severe Halloween costumes, and their ability to turn such agitation into something that is, against all odds, listenable, is a testament to this band’s grasp on their own sound.

Sep 28, 2016They never really embrace as much lyrical darkness as they did on their debut album, though, and they don’t exactly reach for the occasional glimpse of light either. As a result, All Your Happy Life is a lightswitch that keeps awkwardly flickering, intentionally making the mise-en-scène as unsettling as possible.
-
Oct 7, 2016Slower, heavier and maybe a little bit more messed up than before, while not stabbing at the same loud/quiet buttons, AYHL is a most welcome, if mildly unhinged continuation.
