 The new release by Liars is already announced right from the start as one of the best of the year, with the three protagonists now definitively having achieved the status of one of the major independent realities of the decade... and yet... yet something doesn’t add up: the drums are increasingly the backbone of Liars’ poetics... and the charm of the drumming is indisputable, a tribal skeleton with sharper and more martial strokes that never loses sight of its expressive purpose, never over the top and yet so absolutely the protagonist; if only for the rhythms, the album would be a masterpiece...

 A forest that burns inexorably, frenzied volcanoes that could explode at any moment, a noise earthquake.
