"Atlanta collective deliver turbulent, dense and diverse career-high ... Algiers' fourth ascends to greatness in giant steps, driven by an ambition suggesting Sign O' The Times-era Prince. Transcending their earlier post-punk paradigm, Shook's stories of struggle, pain and healing are painted in edgy electro, impassioned punk-soul, cloudbursts of jaz and rattlesnake trap pulses ... The album's sense of urgency and purpose is irresistible; there's a riot goin' on, and Algiers just lit the touchpaper".
