Immaculada High

It truly is a blessed day when the music gods bestow upon us an album as delightfully weird and wonderfully wacky as CHERUBS' Immaculada High. From start to finish, this Texan trio takes us on a sonic journey that is equal parts chaotic and captivating. The album kicks off with the frenetic energy of "Pretty Girls," a punk-infused banger that sets the tone for what's to come. The band effortlessly blends elements of noise rock, post-punk and psychedelic sounds, creating a unique sonic tapestry that is as unpredictable as it is intoxicating. Tracks like "Sooey Pig" and "Breath U Choke" showcase the band's ability to oscillate between abrasive, ear-piercing noise and melodic, captivating hooks with ease. The juxtaposition of these two elements only serves to highlight the band's penchant for pushing boundaries and defying genre conventions. One of the standout moments on the album comes in the form of "Turista," a hypnotic fever dream of a track that is equal parts unsettling and alluring. The band's fearless experimentation and willingness to take risks pays off in spades on this mesmerizing gem. Immaculada High is a testament to CHERUBS' unbridled creativity and fearless approach to music-making. It's a sonic rollercoaster ride that is sure to leave you both exhilarated and exhausted by the time the final note fades away. Cherubs have truly crafted a masterpiece that is as immaculate as the album's title suggests.
