What happens when you take classic British punk artists like IDLES, smash it with King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, and sprinkle in Daughters noise/no-wave and brutal progressive rock music? Well, you get this fantastic debut album from the Bristol four-man band. So many memorable guitar hooks, cryptic and political lyrics, and insane psychedelic production. My biggest complaint with this album is how on and off it can be at times. Many times, the instrumentation takes a huge holt and nothing monumental happens for several seconds if not minutes. However, on a more positive note, this album has the charm and cartoon nature of a Gorillaz album with the off the walls but danceable music of what makes experimental punk music so fantastic to follow through the years.
