    Layered with folklore and mysticism, lustrous synthesiser textures and twangy surf-punk guitars, the band's third album maps an expansive musical cosmos. [Mar 2022, p.26]

    The powerful, sometimes writhing, and often transcendent sonic landscape the band creates here is their most inspired work to date, brimming with purpose and assertiveness that goes beyond mere entertainment and reaches for enlightenment.

    There’s a constant fluidity, a continuum of becoming throughout IRE, and the band stubbornly, almost gleefully, refuse to return earthbound.

    On IRÉ, Combo Chimbita don’t just herald the coming of this future; they usher it into existence, note by electrifying note.
