The WireJul 13, 2022Back In Black actually manages to sound vibrant and resonant without sounding dated – thanks in no small measure to the immaculate production throughout from Black Milk. [Aug 2022, p.64]
-
Mar 18, 2022Back In Black is a tribute, extension, and reminder of Cypress Hill at its peak, to do this so successfully thirty years after that era is impressive in its own unique way.
-
Mar 18, 2022In all the ways that matter, this solidifies their status as a collective still expanding upon their legacy, rather than resting on it.
-
Mar 18, 2022Cypress Hill demonstrates across the record, the more things change, the more they stay the same. The Cheech and Chong of hip-hop are back – and are as clear-headed on hazy-eyed matters as ever.
-
Mar 16, 2022Back In Black is an album-length reminder of why the group has managed to have such staying power. It straddles that difficult artistic line between being devoted to what made the rap outfit great, while changing things up just enough to stay relevant.
-
May 3, 2022Back In Black certainly sounds like the core duo is having more fun making music than in years past. The album features some of the best music the group has made in years but doesn’t stack up to their trailblazing efforts of the ’90s.
-
Mar 17, 2022Though it’s only a brief listen, Back In Black finds Cypress Hill refreshed and re-energised.
-
UncutMar 16, 2022It's Cypress Hill's own B-Real who steals the show, though, his nasally raps still as distinctive as a whiff of the green stuff. [Apr 2022, p.26]
-
Mar 16, 2022Thanks to Black Milk’s production this is their most accomplished album since 1995's ‘Temple Of Boom’.
-
Mar 22, 2022This latest effort is an unabashed classic hip hop record for you to either take it or leave it. The only disappointment is that it could have easily been more than this.
