Self-titled debut album of the band from Atlanta, Georgia, released via Matador Records. Received very positively by both music lovers and critics, I listened to it belatedly, a year after its release, without knowing exactly what to expect. In practice, I would say it is a kind of experimental neo-soul. The sounds are dark and nod to gospel while paying homage to a certain post-punk tradition, even if it lacks the violence and sexy drive that bands like Gun Club or Birthday Party might have had. I like the idea, but the result is not exceptional. Nevertheless, it remains an interesting album that, being easy to listen to, can work well for any type of listener.
