Nov 1, 2016Throughout you can’t help but feel the constant swing of life’s moods, channeling through Elias Bender Rønnenfelt to become a drug that’s uplifting, unifying and ultimately deeply entertaining.
-
UncutOct 28, 2016The charming meld of discordance and melody is displayed throughout, with Rønnenfelt shrieking and hissing above tar-thick bass, piano stabs and guitar. [Dec 2016, p.32]
-
Oct 28, 2016It’s a disco ball in a downtrodden pub that occasionally shines a light on the ashtray angst of early Iceage, while remaining focused on the wider picture.
-
Nov 7, 2016On Telling It Like It Is, Marching Church sounds like a congregation running wild, searching for the truth. Even if they don't know where they'll find it, it's thrilling to join them on the hunt.
-
Oct 28, 2016In stark contrast to last year's effort, Marching Church have learnt to restrain their pandemonium in the name of melody-and are well on their way to becoming experimental rock flag-bearers.
-
Nov 18, 2016Thankfully, Marching Church’s sophomore effort scales back the melodrama and ramps up the discipline: Rønnenfelt and company are focused on verses and choruses and dynamics, rather than self-indulgent noodling--and in the case of this album, a little bit goes a long way.
-
Dec 2, 2016Just like Iceage’s output however, Telling It Like It Is doesn’t always convince.
