Purchased Cazal's long anticipated debut album off the back of their raw, grimey, gritty indie rock demos. After one listen to the record I was immensely disappointed. Gone is the energy, the real raw, clattering punk sound of Cazals. It seems being signed to an electronic label, Kitsune, they were pushed to edit in some samples, electronic beats, keyboards, synths etc. I stress the word "push" here, as most of the songs on the album are nothing like the songs of old. Synths, reverbs and keyboards do not pair with their original punk rock sound. It is painfully obvious that Cazals were desperate for a record deal, found one and then changed their whole outlook because they were being paid for it. Such a shame, a truly awful record
