"The Sunset Violent" sees one of the original innovators in the transition from classic dubstep to future garage continuing their evolution into the realm of rock. This new album explores a hazy and noisy fusion of post-punk and krautrock, resulting in a layered and textured listening experience. Every element is lush and surreal, particularly highlighted by the two features from King Krule, whose hazy vocals seamlessly blend with the instrumentals. However, "The Sunset Violent" falls short in comparison to a typical King Krule record, resembling more of a modern Low production style. While the album presents promising ideas, it feels somewhat underdeveloped, suggesting that the band could benefit from further exploration and refinement of their concepts.
