"Ibibio Sound Machine's trademark sound - a groove-driven melange of styles which also takes in gospel, funk, post- and electro-punk and contemporary R&B, alongside African polyrhythms, horns and guitar - is lively and luxurious enough for the eight-piece outfit to pursue next-level popularity with their third album. Pulling together the band's pile-up of influences is London-born, Nigerian-bred vocalist Eno Williams, who on Doko Mien convincingly shape-shifts between conventional power-diva, sultry R&B singer, the feral frontwoman of a post-punk girlband and pidgin English-speaking yarn-spinner, all the while maintaining her own distinctive vocal character".
