    O'Death reveals a genuine and matured third release that delivers uniquely-raw-panty-soaking-live-energy into studio, into my daily listening, my most coveted. Remove all tiresome baggage prior to listening as this album demands your entirety. Above all, go see them for yourself, perhaps in the unshaven lude.

    The playing is tighter and more polished, but they haven't lost any of their manic energy, and in fact this outing is, if anything, even more energetic than "Head Home."

    The carnival-esque, unsettling vibe permeating forms both its strong appeal and sometime downfall, as sustaining momentum at the pace O’Death strive to can prove alienating. Peppered with stark imagery and carried off with consummate musical skill however, for the most part it’s utterly absorbing.

    The disc infuses folk with frenetic intensity, but it's all so over the top that it's hard to take it as anything more than a distraction, like an annoying buzz or a particularly scratchy pair of wool socks.
