the coiling of twin guitars, synths, spacemen 3-like trajectories to the stars, languid echoed vocals & deliciously metronomic, crisp drumming, toy light the british psych rock pyre with the krautrock torch.
“merging garage-rock violence, post-punk drama, krautrock’s motorik rush & effects-pedal psychedelia into a blitzing racket. It would, to be honest, be more impressive if you’d never heard their friends the Horrors, who have had more time to explore similar terrain, but Toy have a fiercer edge, pitting Diez’s heroic, stargazing synth melodies against a threatening, brutish rhythm section, as if hoping to physically beat the audience towards transcendence.” 4/5 – the guardian.
