(5/5 and of whom put the band on the cover for their September issue), Kerrang!
(4/5), Dork (5/5), Metal Hammer (8/10),
Planet Rock Magazine (4/5), Rhythm (4/5),
Discovered Magazine (10/10), The Skinny (4/5) and
New Noise (US – 5/5), with The Independent stating “..their
sublime second album All That Divides, which is massive in every sense
of the word. Bringing in Adrian Bushby (Foo Fighters, Muse) was a
master-stroke – his production
plays a big part in how the album offers up vast sonic landscape that
takes you on an intense, emotional journey via album highlight “Aether”,
across “Slow Seas”, and closing on “Fate I & II”. This feels like a
real achievement.”
