A new nature

"Overall, A New Nature is Esben and the Witch's most thoughtful, yet physical record yet. It's expansive and free, without feeling padded or meandering, and it successfully balances devastating noise, with moments of wondrous beauty. It's a tremendous record, that simply, and effectively puts their contemporaries to shame".

"Thomas Fisher's sparse, creeping guitar thrashes gloomily from delicate to deafening throughout 'A New Nature', while vocalist Rachel Davies makes for a commanding narrator, especially on the ghoulish intro to 'Those Dreadful Hammers'. Production comes from Steve Albini (...), his less-is-more approach is the only point of weakness on an otherwise impressively dramatic record".
