  • Summary: The debut album for the rock band led by Todd Albert Rittmann.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 2 out of 6
  2. Negative: 1 out of 6
  1. The result is a slinky, spiky, minimalist groove, clanking like some kind of extinct, rusty machinery. Lyrics are impressionistic, insinuated over heaving rhythms in not-quite-linear blurts of imagery, but they seem to consider the place of music in times of conflict.
  2. Demanding, absorbing, and, for better or worse, never feeling like a cohesive album, Mother of Curses is a collection of shocking truths set to stun the senses.
  3. Mother of Curses feels suffocating: it’s experimental but constrained and bleak but not humanistic or relatable.
  4. Whatever the band’s intent, though, Mother of Curses simply doesn’t work.
