Chelsea Wolfe’s seventh full-length outing is equally bleak, sonically stirring, and thoroughly engaging.
“Rips through you like a wrecking ball… ‘Blood Of The Beast’ is certainly mission accomplished”
“Hesitation Wounds channel a brand of anger that feels incredibly contemporary while still having its primal execution”
“‘Positive Rising: Part 1’ shows DZ Deathrays’ ability to change it up a bit”
“‘The Witching Hours’ draws on all the experience Avagrace have amassed”
“When it’s fast and dirty it works well. Yet, when the band aim for a grander mainstream sound, things go awry”
“Gender Roles are destined to make waves in the very near future… a wholly enjoyable burst of sonic energy and youthful exuberance”
“a vicious, uncompromising ride… Knocked Loose whip up a storm of catharsis, breakdowns and bruised knuckles”
“Stunning, punishing and relaxing, often all at once… there’s strange beauty amongst the chaos”
“a comfortable album laced with a real sense of fun”
“a sense of consistency, and just an overall higher bar, set Crobot apart from most of the pack”
