Critical Reception

AllMusic gave a positive review towards the album, complimenting both its short punchier songs and its lengthier ballads, calling it "Bludgeoning and beautiful all at once".[1] Pitchfork gave a mostly positive review, particularly appreciating its shorter songs and added themes "with influences ranging from post-rock to black-metal", however felt that the 2 ending, longer, songs were overly repetitive with the same motifs repeated.[2]

gollark: I don't remember the exact specs. Hold on.
gollark: But otherwise those don't really matter much in desktops.
gollark: "Great capacity" how?
gollark: I don't see why you would want to.
gollark: Lakefield is *specifically* for low-power devices, it's not going to *perform better* than monolithic things.
