BIO

“If Godspeed around the turn of the millennium felt like a band of the moment, now, in a time of rapid cultural turnover and bite-sized music consumption, they feel out of step in a very necessary way.”Pitchfork (9.3, Best New Music)“Monumental. Du grand Godspeed () On ne cesse de vibrer une intensit grand I”La Presse“Godspeed have once again created a challenging, intense, evocative work, worthy of their canon.”BBC Music“Godspeed is all about wide-open spaces here. And it’s easier to find transcendence in the desolation, to get hypnotized by a single note, or get lost in rearranging the four vinyl sides into your own personal manifesto. To infinity and beyond.”SPIN (9/10)“A decade on from their split, this Montreal collective still sound like nothing else It’s beautiful, thrilling and exhausting. The Godspeed ethos of wordlessly eliciting universal truths is remains as devastatingly effective as ever.”The Guardian“The Montreal-based collective lets its muse speak and follows its purest impulses, and the result is music of raw power and uncompromising integrity.”Textura“Intense trame sans paroles… Sa musique exigeante se rvle du coup plus concrte, et donc plus accessible. Allluia.”Le Devoir“They can still create movements that trample your heart and then gather up the pieces and hand them back to you healed.‘Allelujah!is Godspeed’s most evenhanded, accessible release to date, balancing the two styles they’re famed for: the kind of emotional gallops found onLift Your Skinny Fistsand the sheer oblivion of their early material.”Slant
