    Though Font’s live magic is complex to replicate on recording, the five-piece bring glorious chaos to their debut album—a flair achieved by their inherent, non-conformist brilliance and the brazen gusto that drives their experimental, unflinching prowess.

    Strange Burden is meticulous and crackling—a concise, gripping record that sparks and sizzles like a kinked spike of lightning.

    The diverging styles can at times be overbearing but there is a sense of freshness and bold shifts that is hard not to appreciate and it will be interesting to see how their style evolves.

    Strange Burden, while infuriatingly short, is paced and produced acutely.
