Their inspired, eclectic mix of sounds and textures is always playful, but Taiga's powerful playing and sophisticated arrangements make it OOIOO's most mature album yet.
-
I’m not saying this is the easiest music to deal with; those with more vanilla tastes will not want to come anywhere near this. But for avant-garde multi-genre music from Japan, it’s awfully cuddly and adorable.
-
All of its tracks are kila kila killer.
-
The language barrier and discord makes the record incomprehensible, but nearly everything is still as intoxicating and entertaining as hell.
-
Mostly Taiga is about sensation, playful and wild and smart but moving way too fast for contemplation.
-
Taiga is a surprisingly approachable album.
-
Taiga is OOIOO's broadest, busiest, and furthest reaching album to date. Strangely, those same characteristics ruin it.
