3.8 excellent | Erwann S. STAFF | May 12th 22 | Hell yeah, Aussie psych rock. PPC (lel) does it all, starting with headbopping shit to slowly dive into the rich waves of DrugLand, always with mucho reverbo and distant vocals. Big yay.

3.5 great | Britch2tiger | May 14th 20 | I might be overselling this album as the 2010's Loveless [My Bloody Valentine]. They both audibly "backseat" the lyrics w/in their songs to have the listener focus on their luscious instrumentals. Unlike Loveless' dream pop, this record instead dawns a grunge outfit for their distorted sections. The longer tracks have a jam rock quality in how they tend to change tempos and rhythms throughout giving off occasional prog rock qualities. Track 10 (Denmark/Van Gogh & Gone) is the puzzling embodiment of this album. It has a buildup (Denmark) toward a great opus (VGAG) that's well worth the listen. However I'd be the side arguing how there were enough Denmark moments throughout this record to ease the listener into or build toward the next VGAG moments. A great record no question, but I think the pacing could've been improved.

4.5 superb | 00mee | May 24th 16 | Audacious, brazen, spirited. High Visceral is a celebration of the hostility of youth, the joys of post adolescence
world trumping and the fun in just not giving a fuck. There are too many highlights to count, and these boys
have a deft hand for touch even amidst all the balls to the walls fuzz riffin that happens basically on every
track. I really enjoyed the call back Nirvana drumming on 'Cubensis Lenses', the all out psych jam at the back
of 'found god in a tomato' and the impressive blues riff at the start of 'Surf's Up'. Basically the love child of
Closure in Moscow and Tame Impala.
