Face Stabber

Smote Reverser was fantastic, and Face Stabber continues in a similar sonic vein. The band mix punk, psychedelia, prog, krautrock, and jazz into a swirling, smoky double album. And despite its daunting length, the music is consistently engaging. Bluesy, fuzzed-out guitars, proggy organ licks, and funky clavinet and piano lines somehow work in harmony.

This album can be called the pinnacle of the entire audiography of the band, it contains essentially everything that they have released in recent years, their magnum opus.
