In an era where albums are frequently going on just that little bit too long, TDS's boast of '18 songs in 26 minutes' is refreshing; no time to be bored here, this is ADHD: The Musical. Musically, it veers all over the place with gleeful abandon; there are flashes of metal, electro beats and synths, and bratty pop sing-along vocals. Intermission is 1.56 of punktronica knees up, and MFDS is a sub-one minute hip-hop interlude that is there to remind us, that they are, indeed, The Motherfucking DeathSet. Similar to contemporaries such as the delightful Mae Shi, and hometown hero Dan Deacon – whose sound they hint at occasionally here - this messy splatter of a record is a rare thing: Fun, dammit, fun!
