This time around Blackman steps up as the captain of the ship, leading his crew toward honour and excellence. With Steve Albini as navigator, Purplene deliver a world-class release containing compelling imagery and demonstrating a matured approach to their sound. Brendan Webb
Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly.
Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego
