Jun 29, 2016The grinding synths and swells of feedback take the album to newer places, but as the band continues to create, they’d do well to cherry-pick the best parts of their forebears’ evolutions--particularly the unbridled chaos of Zen Arcade-era Hüsker Dü and the expansive experimentation of later Black Flag--to continue filling out their sound.
