    Coming from someone that's been a fan since their first album, I was a bit disappointed with this release. I just felt it was ok. There are a few gems here and there. But none of the tracks can live up to the magic that is 'Exploding Head' and 'A Place to Bury Strangers'.

    The placeholder EP is blunter and slighter than the album.

    Like a strawberry cupcake covered in Szechuan pepper, A Place To Bury Strangers finds the sweet spot by ripping its way through in Onwards to the Wall.

    Softening their sound hasn't led to more fans, but to a blander, weaker and unsatisfying sound.
