“Black Lips have crafted a very solid album.” ★★★★ Pitchfork

“I was already a fan of the Black Lips coming into it and I definitely didn’t want to f**k up anything,” Ronson told Rolling Stone…and f**k up he did not. The production tests the limits of modern amplification, harkening to the full, meaty sound of The Stooges’ Fun House or Lola Versus Powerman by the Kinks

Unapologetic southern-fried twang, crunching through the gears with flowers blossoming everywhere.
