    I'm a fan, so what can i say?
    Their best yet.

    Much more melodic vocals than the tracks they recorded before.

    Terrible human beings.
    Ps. I listen to that lp all day long on Spotify.

    Felt that this album moved them in a slightly new direction, but considering that they're barely old enough to drink, and are evolving at a solid rate, I'm really excited to what the future holds.

    No standout bad songs on the album at all which is normal for Orwells albums.
    Next album I believe they'll break through into the mainstream lexicon in a big way.

    Good stuff, would recommend.

    Unkempt and heartfelt, Terrible Human Beings shows The Orwells have promise and is a fun joy ride while you're on it. You just may not feel compelled to repeat the ride very often.

    The album doesn’t take The Orwells to another musical level but, produced by Jim Abbiss (who worked with them previously), it makes for fun listening.

    Rather than saturate Terrible Human Beings with these thrilling, if grotesque, excesses, the Orwells use them sparingly, which strengthens their impact and punches up the flavor of an otherwise measured album.
