Nov 18, 2022It’s a brave band that unleashes such an extensive body of work. It’s lucky, then, that it’s all so eminently listenable.

UncutNov 18, 2022The best music here is more evocative of their own past triumphs like 2014's "Do It Again" EP with Robyn. [Jan 2023, p.25]

Nov 21, 2022Profound Mysteries III is decidedly weirder and slower, allowing the band to explore the leftfield theatrics and grittiness intrinsic to the best side of their sound. Yet there are plenty of moments where bombastic pomp overshadows this restraint. ... All in all, a mixed bag.
