3.0 good | Gene Gol-Jonsson CONTRIBUTOR | October 6th 21 | I applaud Sleigh Bells on championing this kind of bipolar style of - i guess - 'ridiculous rock' and being the original weirdos to make hyper-pseudo-bombastic-pop-bombardment a thing before so many other artists have turned it into actual genres. That said, it's never really an easy task swallowing what Sleigh Bells are cooking and I find myself struggling with their work quite often. Because at their most accessible they sound very plain and unexciting. In contrast with that their more off-kilter songs can be so bloated as to become nearly unlistenable. It's always a strange mush of everything and the kitchen sink in the mix, where you can clearly pick up really good ideas and catchy songs or fun concepts, but are ultimately left drained of energy for all the bad reasons.

4.1 excellent | Erwann S. STAFF | September 29th 21 | Mad catchy vocal delivery, weirdo noisindustrial riffs, foot-stomping claps and percussions, or; how to strike a perfect balance of accessible power or powerful accessibility, resulting in eleven bangers.

3.0 good | ajcollins15 | September 16th 21 | The two group noise pop band on their fifth album seem to finally figure out their sound, but in some ways, it seems too little to-late in the vast land of pop music now. What I mean is there are a lot of odd parallels that can be made to hyperpop with this kind of sound, aggressive instrumentals, cutesy vocals with somewhat charged lyrics, and experimental song structures. This album has all of that and I am happy for the band to finally figure out this sound. But this idea and concept seem not new anymore and more of a novelty of sounds that have been around a while. Still great performances and playing.
