There’s readability, and even moments of triumph. The clamorous SEE YA NEXT TUESDAY bristles with righteous fury whereas nodding to their hardcore facet, which the hellish REPRISE builds on with a cry of ‘WITCH FUCKING FEVER!’ that appears like a gorgeous proclamation of self-confidence. However, in fact, there are moments of devastation as effectively. AMBER finds Amy singing by a fracturing voice earlier than she screams to the godless heavens, however her capability to knock their air out of your lungs even whereas writing about easier, extra common ache (as with Gradual Burn from Congregation) is simply as impeccable. The glimmering SAFE, which lingers on the sluggish agony of the motion from lovers to buddies, is totally heart-shattering stuff, and in case your chest’s not heavy by the tip the haunting cello solo that finishes it would change that.
That is an album for the coldest of autumns and for darkish nights of the soul. It’s hellish, haunting and an emotional maelstrom, deeper and extra textured than Witch Fever have ever gone earlier than. At this level, everybody must know who this band are.
Verdict: 4/5
