Jun 18, 2018[Kelley Deal] sings on two of the new EP's songs, and that all-too-fleeting taste will leave you immediately hankering for more.
-
Jul 10, 2018Protomartyr has yet to let us down, and Consolation assures that they aren't going to anytime soon.
-
Jun 18, 2018It will be interesting to see where Protomartyr go from here and if they can sustain this incredible level of output, but if nothing else, Consolation gives hope that this band will continue to be the real deal (pun intended).
-
Jun 19, 2018As ever, Protomartyr deliver absolutely unmissable, essential music for and from the darkest of hearts.
-
Jun 19, 2018The point is that new stuff is added without compromise or dilution. And listening here, you realize that change is good and maybe even necessary, no matter how much you like how Protomartyr has always sounded.
-
Dec 6, 2018Protomartyr has commented, too, on how Deal’s sense of melody added “femininity” to their music of Consolation; her voice certainly adds life and levity. If Protomartyr learned anything from Odyshape, it might be the audacity to explore, to locate new methods of release—and they found a bracing clarity.
-
Jun 18, 2018There are not a lot of bands who do what Protomartyr does, and even if there were, the skill and fury of their music would still set them apart, and Consolation is a brief but potent reminder that they're a force to be reckoned with.
