Mar 1, 2024At their strange best, they sound like Radiohead with an ABBA obsession. A special album from a special band.
-
Feb 28, 2024As per the band’s recent promise to deliver “only bangers,” they fully deliver. Led by instant fan-favorite lead single “Cold Reactor,” these tracks include some of their catchiest and most memorable hooks.

Mar 4, 2024Lots of artists aspire to create an album which matches the zeitgeist (easier said than done), but Mountainhead comes a lot closer than most.

Mar 1, 2024An album that continues the quartet’s knack for pairing potent socio-political commentary with delicious pop nous.
