    Though it shrouds itself in chaos, Bottomless Pit is ultimately Death Grips’ most straightforward, morbid, and brutal report from the deep end yet. Like watching a great beast eat itself, there is little in the way of elegance or grand design to this music, yet it remains throttling nonetheless, as relentlessly blunt as it is overwhelmingly meaningless.

By far, the songs and the hooks are as catchy as those of The Money Store, while keeping that abrasive energy of Jenny Death, the second half of The Powers That B. To add on, production quality has definitely improved a lot, especially since after Jenny Death. Hands down, this album is a great record and probably the trio's best by far. And for first time listeners, this is a great album to start off with.

It pulls you in from the very beginning with, "Giving Bad People Good Ideas," and it never lets you go until the closer, "Bottomless Pit." I've never seen such sustainability with a band's discography. While this band has some of the catchiest hooks to ever appear in a Death Grips song (see: Eh, Ring a Bell, Houdini), it also has some of the harshest, most violent music we've ever heard from them (Hot Head, Three Bedrooms in a Good Neighborhood, Bottomless Pit). There is not a single low moment for me in this entire album.… Full Review »
