This might be their best album, and that's really saying something. The songs shift seamlessly from crushing to angelic, and there are enough other dynamics and subtleties at play to keep each song interesting. It's my favorite album of 2020, and I don't see that changing any time soon. steverie
An utterly brick-walled pummeling of catchy, "poppy" post-hardcore. Takes the huge guitars, harsh synths, and waves of dense vocals from Only Love to a whole new level. Focusing on themes of performance, alienation, post-truth, and desire for intimacy.
The Armed's most exciting, ground-breaking record yet! Completely in love! Josh Linnen
