Reviews
Our new record “Lizard Lounge” (Which can be heard here and bought on vinyl here) has been getting some sweet press since its release! Here’s a few choice cuts of what’s been said so far:
"Barren Womb’s fourth - and best - album is a grubby ashtray of Clutch-like quips, Refused’s hardcore splats, Primus-esque wobbliness and, above all, big, stinky riffs. This is what people pretended Royal Blood did."
- Metal Hammer, 8/10
"The great North has more to offer than the stereotypical black and death metal we so often imagine and Northern Hardcore is one such option and if it all sounds like Barren Womb then count me in!"
- Metal Saves, 9/10
"Barren Womb demonstrates with this new record how there’s so much more to our music scene than the neat little boxes we tend to package things up in and is ready to reward those who are willing to look beyond"
- Noizze, 8/10
“un candidat idéal comme parfaite musique de fond pour vos prochains barbecues entre amis aux goûts musicaux divers et autres buffets à caractère estival, musical et oecuménique.”
- Core and Co, 8.5/10
“I can assure you that the music offered is serious business indeed.”
- Scene Point Blank, 8.5/10
“‘Lizard Lounge’ is an amazing take on the noise rock genre that is worthy of a spot in even the pickiest of fan's collections.”
- The Sludgelord
“There are exclusively great tracks on this album, all short, zesty, and sometimes a little hard to swallow. They leave a bitter aftertaste, a lingering sense of nihilism, but also a desire to continue living, out of some kind of spite. It demands your attention, and I definitely think it deserves it.”
