Apr 24, 2024With Forgiveness Is Yours, Saoudi and company achieve that objective—with a patina of sophistication.

Apr 25, 2024A brilliantly inventive record that concludes with a bit of sarky musical theatre (which may be aimed at Adamczewski). Saoudi has hinted that this could be Fat Whites’ final album. If so, they’ve gone out on the most surprising note of all.

Apr 25, 2024On this record Fat White Family solidify their status as a one of Britain’s most unique voices, and ‘Forgiveness Is Yours’ is the strongest example yet of the band’s caustic creativity.

Apr 30, 2024A few songs get bogged down with less of what makes the music so appealing and are missing that intangible ingredient, creating an uneven album that is somewhat erratic and inconsistent. .... Forgiveness Is Yours is original, intriguing, and appealing to adventurous souls looking for a listening experience outside their comfort zone and into the recklessly candid world of a unique and talented band.
