CRITIC REVIEWS

DIY
For a project that could have held unreasonable expectations, it overdelivers time and time again.

Clash
A nerve-jangling experience, it could well rank as their masterpiece.

This album is just a bunch of highest pitched distorted melodies, overloaded 808s, out-of-place vocal samples and weird-ass lyrics. This thing is supposed to be disgusting, scaring(as the title says) and lame overall.
However, it's the most fascinating musical experience of 2023 so far. Because what makes music good is its ability to surprise. And Peggy and Danny's ability to think outside the box (yeah, that goofy-ass phrase) and find the weirdest yet good-sounding melodies is squared on this ... read more
