    If you loved Eternal Blue, this is the record you’d want to hear next, on which Spiritbox, empowered by confidence, go bigger and (occasionally) stranger. If, however, you felt Eternal Blue wasn’t quite bold enough, then strap in for something choppier.

    A swaggering display of confidence by a band in total command of their craft, ‘Tsunami Sea’ is solid-as-granite proof that heavy music retains its vitality and relevancy in 2025. The punishing elegance of Spiritbox’s new album will punch a hole through your chest and wrap its aqueous arms around your heart.

    The production throughout is heavily compressed, sometimes to the detriment of the low end. But Spiritbox often make a virtue of that glutted sound, especially on the apocalyptic opener Fata Morgana, which feels like crawling snow-blind through an avalanche of noise.
