Los Campesinos! - All Hell
“Self-funded, self-released, self-produced, and self-referential, the Welsh rock band’s seventh album has a big-tent sound with all the requisite wit and panache. It is unquestionably the ultimate Los Campesinos! album.” – Pitchfork: Best New Music (8.5)
“Immediate and essential” – Stereogum (Album Of The Week)
“A triumph” – DIY (4.5/5)
“All Hell is a testament to Los Campesinos!‘ enduring relevance” – Dork Mag (4/5)
“dazzling wordplay, gorgeous imagery and pristine production” 5/5 – The Skinny (5/5)
“All Hell hits all the musical and lyrical sweet spots that the band have become adored for” – Rolling Stone
“Los Campesinos! have carved out a unique niche, keeping things fresh and urgently moving.” – Exclaim! (8/10)
“Rich and rewarding” – The Line Of Best Fit
“lead single “Feast of Tongues” gradually builds in intensity, stacking clever, wordy lyrics that reference a dizzying hodgepodge of modern cultural touchstone” – NY Times
All Hell is an album on…
drinking for fun and drinking for misery // adult acne // adult friendship // football // death and dying // love and sex // late-stage capitalism // Orpheus // day dreaming // night terrors // the heart as an organ and as a burden // suburban boredom // Tears of the Kingdom // the punks on the playlist // increments of time // climate apocalypse // the moon the moon the moon ///
