Their darkest effort to date, Sleep Well Beast finds the band uttering cynical and spooky lyrics about humans' primal nature towards self-destruction and a political/social distrust while sounding as energetic, motivated and thoroughly detailed as ever. The album suffocates at almost an-hour-long, but the jagged soundscapes and hidden messages across its 12 songs are a journey worth-experiencing.
