4.0 excellent | Jared Floryan | October 8th 15 | Though phenomenally nothing new, Ad Nauseam does indeed prove that avant-garde metal band Dog Fashion Disco owe it all to us. The successor to a worthy comeback album in Sweet Nothings, DFD's newest addition to their discography is undeniably the most streamlined record they've ever put out, but it's no less enjoyable in the process. With better production values and no relatively terrible songs, Ad Nauseam manages to surpass its predecessor at times. The album is good for listening if you feel like levitating in the bed with the devil himself. Angel recommends: "Ad Nauseam," "Last Night Never Happened," "Covered in Blood," "Watching You," and "Starving Artist".

2.5 average | EasterInTheBatcave | June 29th 16 | DFD's most focused record. There are no country songs or elevator music interludes or string-backed avant-garde spoken word pieces here; rather, every song falls pretty neatly into the rock/metal category, albeit with a distinctly dark atmosphere and Todd Smith's Patton-esque vocals. "Last Night Never Happened," "Golden Mirage," and "Starving Artist" are the highlights, but there isn't a weak song in the bunch. While I miss the eclecticism that characterized the band's previous works, Ad Nauseum is ultimately a great record-- if narrower in scope than DFD's other albums.

4.0 excellent | HarshCreep | October 5th 15 | Ad Nauseam is about on par with Sweet Nothings, but thankfully the mixing/mastering is slightly
better. Standout Tracks: Golden Mirage, Baby Bones, Starving Artist. Weak Tracks: Only The
Haunted, Lotion On Its Skin.
