Nothing here is ever banal because nothing is left to chance, everything brushes perfection. Psychedelic rock has a new face. A face stained with electronics, melancholy, anger, and resignation, but also lots of beautiful melody composed of independent schemes.

Their music, a child of the 60s, is bastardized by the frequent yelling of the singer, at times annoying and at the limit of tolerance. The hidden track is the song with the most personality of all... but that’s not enough.

The review initially finds the album intriguing but quickly notes the band’s lack of a strong musical identity. While the opening tracks hold some promise, the album ultimately fades due to weak melodies and an irritating vocal style. Random solo segments feel out of place, and the voice lacks distinctiveness. A hidden track shows personality, but overall the album fails to impress. Read the full review and listen to Mower’s 'People Are Cruel' to decide if it’s your style.
