Earthly Delights Image
  • Summary: This is the fifth album for the rock band from Rhode Island.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 14 out of 17
  2. Negative: 0 out of 17
  1. Lightning Bolt exists in a wholly different context than it did four years ago, but Earthly Delights ranks up there with the group's best work.
  2. At its core, Earthly Delights is the sound of a band digging in so deep, they've struck something molten.
  3. 60
    Their fifth album still features plenty of trademark thrills - Brian Chippendale drumming junglist breakbeats at heart-attack velocity, bassist Brian Gibbon's' riffs sounding like a grindcore group playing gabba - while the bark-spitting tempo-shifts of opener Sound Guardians wouldn't alienate the Metallica set.
