4.0 excellent | Slothy Seconds | September 24th 20 | Albums like, Conor McGregor with a samurai
sword on Rollerblades. Or, like Vasyl
Lomachenko after four pints of Gatorade. Or,
like Kathleen Hanna with bear claws grabbing
Trump by the pussy.

3.2 good | Erwann S. STAFF | September 25th 20 | In and of itself, the record's great and enjoyable. I just can't help thinking about its oh-so-many faults: Talbot's least good vocal performance, rushed lyrics, lack of standout tracks. It's a good consistent album that I'll jam from time to time. Yet, it isn't one album that will be remembered in my opinion, lacking pure bangers like "Danny Nedelko" or "Never Fight a Man with a Perm". All tracks tackle the same sonic territories, resulting in a quite monotone record.

2.0 poor | BlitzPhoenix98 | January 20th 21 | Is it just me, or that whenever I listen to this album even more, the more I dislike it? Most of these lyrics are either childish or beyond nonsensical. Gone are all the political stances and messages, replaced with nothing but pointless angst. What happened, IDLES?

3.0 good | cjbizzlebizzle | December 31st 20 | IDLES cool off a bit after a hot streak but not all is lost. Joe Talbot still has one of the best deliveries in punk and the band just has a knack for writing great riffs and building some of the best tension dynamics in punk. That being said the lyrics seem clumsier than ever and feel lazy at times missing the mark for the issues they are approaching. They seem less blunt, aggressive and less thought out than on Joy... and while there are a few catchy hooks they don't reach the absolute powderkeg intensity the band was able to produce in the past. The album is nowhere near a disappointment but it leaves you wondering where the band is heading next and how they will use their natural gift for songwriting to produce another gem.

3.5 great | MisterDoe | October 10th 20 | I'm getting a bit worried here. Don't get me wrong, I like this. It's as ferocious, cynical, and even likable as we've come to expect from IDLES. But it's a drum that's been beaten before, and some ideas are starting to get stale; especially the shockingly upfront lyrics.

3.5 great | Gene Gol CONTRIBUTOR | October 1st 20 | Joe's voice is breaking here more than ever before. guess he's maturingrfunny cause his lyrics are doing the opposite.

2.0 poor | ajcollins15 | September 30th 20 | One of the UK?s greatest punk outfits in years comes through with one of their weakest set of tracks; both sonically and lyrically. Their third album shows a dampening of instrumental chops with weak songwriting, bland punk guitar riffs, and obvious post-punk and garage rock tropes that make me question what they were ever thinking. I already wasn?t a huge fan of the band but going back and listening to their 2017 and 2018 albums they blow this album out of the water. Also, lyrically the record doesn?t bring up anything politically interesting and sometimes they sound like children talking about politics. Not sure what exactly happened here.
