May 19, 2026Nothing about the complexity of OOIOO’s music stops the groove from, well, grooving. These cuts move and pulse and howl. .... If you like Lightning Bolt, it’s probably because it makes you happy. It runs as hard and fast as any music on the market, but in a fun way, not an exhausting one.
