Dec 5, 2017From punk to bossa nova, from r&b to jazz... You get King Krule at his best (and in different flavors) on "The Ooz".
The album also makes a connection with Archy Marshall's previous works, which is amazing.
Favorite tracks: Biscuit Town, The Locomotive, Dum Surfer, Slush Puppy, Logos, Czech One and La Lune. -

Oct 15, 2017post punk jazz trip hop rnb extravaganza genres are blurred bent and twisted in the strangest and most original rock album I've heard from this decade, king krule is a true innovator which is hard to comeby nowadays

Oct 14, 2017Incredible record in this 2017 what launched King Krule, is an album with touches of punk and even ska, this last genre very well achieved, with an influence of The Specials. It's a complex album, full of mysteries and it's wonderful to go slowly, the only negative detail is that it did not know how to be concise and is long.

Oct 13, 2017The OOZ has very evident influences musically and aesthetically while also being very personal and close to Archie. The atmosphere on this album is heavy, dark, and grimey, but still musically awe-inspiring. This album pulls together sounds from all genres and eras of music and mixes them together to make the sound of King Krule.

Oct 13, 2017King Krule on The OOZ is a moribund blossomer. Dark, discordant, vicious rock and moody jazz; more interesting than anything else you're listening to.

Nov 13, 2017The unpromising combinations separate rather than coalesce. The talented, pugilistic youngster’s best feels yet to come.

Q MagazineOct 24, 2017The Ooz can be dark and difficult. But it is also ambitious and delightful, reaffirming the delightful, reaffirming the delicate boundary between beauty and ruin. [Dec 2017, p.103]

Oct 24, 2017This is, to date, the most complete expression of Marshall’s musical ethos, and it’s done in such an immersive fashion that it’d be foolish not to resist. Nothing released in 2017 so far has sounded anything like The OOZ, and it’s doubtful that anything will be as great, either.
