Apocalypse love

"The more the Black Lips change, the more they stay the same. They may try to clean up their sound, hire famous producers, and add different influences to their music, but at heart they remain the same bunch of noisy punks from Atlanta who revel in their own variety of messed-up noise, albeit noise that has plenty of buzzed-out guitars and some pretty great tunes ... It's impressive how purposefully murky the band can make this music feel when you notice that the tracks are actually pretty coherent, with imaginative layers of sound working in support of the songs, and the passage of time hasn't robbed them of their spirit or significantly bent vision. Apocalypse Love is as weird as it wants to be, and coming from this band, that's always welcome".

"The Black Lips have always been impossible to pin down, but this record sees them getting increasingly feral. 'Apocalypse Love' is a primal cry, a maniacal love letter to their sonic anarchy and the unpredictability of the world we live in. It's a discordant record, swerving through genres and emotions at breakneck speed, but that's what the Black Lips are all about".

"Unstoppable Georgian garage-rock hellraisers evolve again: Newest to the party is the no wave electro-pulsating "No Rave", its '66 fuzztone mayhem kicking off 'Apocalypse Love' on a deliriously good foot. All told, an uproarious upgrade on the garage bashfest".
