"... if you're in the market for an album that will summon the dark atmospheres, Death Song certainly delivers the goods, and it demonstrates that the Black Angels slowly but surely improve each time they go into the studio".

"The Black Angels can immediately suggest hints of many other artists, but on Death Song, their greatest strength is harnessing the aesthetic they've worked for more than a decade to refine, and it's as rich and powerful as they've ever sounded, even when steering into an unexpected krautrock diversion like the screeching pulser "I Dreamt." So while there are ghosts of the past coming out of the woodwork on the album, it's much more than a seance. The Black Angels are a supernatural force unto themselves".

"Death Song is an album about fear, and the violence it engenders; love and the lengths we'll go to to protect the things we love. The clean production and the twisty smoke and mirrors of the songwriting creates a certain distancing from these most mortal of things, as though we have already crossed over and are seeing this world from the other side".
