Seething with dark muscularity, the urgent \"What Would You Do?\" is a beautiful and cathartic baptism-by-fire get-down that never lets up. With Pixies' undertones and Beatle accents, \"Will It Ever End?\" is a startling, pandemic appropriate head-trip that like the voice in your head, goes to places unforeseen and unforgiven. And \"Feast or Famine,\" the unholy progeny of AC\/DC and Sabbath-era Ozzy - is a Killer, eat or be eaten elegy for the Trump years.
