    Bleak and beautiful, Family & Friends is an absolute beast.

    Ironically, spitting over minimal head-knock beats from WHY? and Advance Base, Serengeti sounds reborn.

    The result is a deeply humane album, it makes poetry out of the disappointments of daily existence and narrative out of the mistakes that people make.
