    Essentially the second half of their epic third album, the trio are in blistering form on III's seven tracks. [May 2016, p.75]

    There's might in their minimalism. [Mar 2016, p.111]

    Finland's anti-band continue their primal journey along intergalactic motorik highways, shifting toward more popular dimensions but without losing any intensity, energy or theatrics. [Mar 2016, p.55]

    There's a point during Transuranic Heavy Elements where the bludgeoning beats pause and something (Guitars? You? The earth?) begins to howl, and you think: This is probably not for everyone.

    The spaciousness foregrounds the band's relentless pulse and frontman Timo Kaukolampi's incantations. [Apr 2016, p.93]

    Toxic synths and an undeniable sense of occasion pervade, the record sounds appropriately big and it just about steers clear of unwanted pomposity.
