Oct 27, 2019Transcendent. Love the new direction. I hope this is fleshed out more in subsequent releases.

Nov 8, 2019A cool-down like this is everything I could ever want from Mr Gira after such earth-shattering trilogy.

Dec 29, 2019The best album released in 2019! It's not as good as their album TO BE KIND, but still amazing!

Nov 26, 2019The latest iteration of Gira's fierce, frightening Swans is a quieter, subtler beast perhaps—but it's no less an intense, oppressive, challenging, and magical experience than those created on vinyl by their recent "classic" lineup. Torture it may be, but it's never felt so sweet.

Q MagazineNov 19, 2019Anyone wanting more of the multilayered sense of foreboding afforded by 2016's The Glowing Man, Meanwhile, will be delighted by the pulverising Sunfucker and The Hanging Man. [Jan 2020, p.114]
