An album all about finding beauty and a shred of positivity in a bleak, horrifying world. Enter Shikari indulges in the electronic and synth world of rock again; they’ve learned how to lean into it. Some of the big moments, especially in the first half of the album, hit hard. The first four songs have such a journey through them, it’s all great. The problem, this album is short. You are left wanting more, especially after several interlude and fade-out tracks. Even if not all the digital elements connect, the good parts along with the messages shine. Just wish this whole world was bigger. 7/10
