On an album full of art-damaged dirges and angular, punishingly dissonant guitar work, vocalists Joseph Thomas and Alexander Grant’s flow of social and political critiques burn like bile as they tear through grim exorcisms on nationalism, suicide, hate crime, depression, the prison industrial complex, and neo-colonialism.
A brutally angry and inspiring collection of songs.
