O Monolith

The second Squid record is a bundle of anxious energy threatening to explode - a masterpiece in creating taut, explosive atmosphere.
Ollie Judge’s joint drumming and singing duties combine perfectly, with these songs swelling and breaking at the whim of his movements. His ability to steer the energy makes the whole album feel electric, dragging you into every impassioned push and pull. This energy is matched by a newfound focus on atmospherics that drops the crispness of their earlier work in favour of a dramatic, post-rock indebted style perfectly tuned into the mania Judge brings. This is an ambitious and exceptionally well executed record.
