№ 189 on The 250 Best Electronic Albums of the 21st Century

Palimpsest fuses breakcore velocity with hyperpop-scale digital excess until the styles start behaving like one unstable language. Lauren Bousfield's maximalism works because the collisions feel authored rather than random, giving it a distinct place inside the 2020s experimental-electronic underground. 'Clean Strategic Narratives With Relatable Messaging Murder Them Violently Make Their Children Watch' is one of thirteen titles. None of them is shorter than the music deserves.

№ 14 on The 10 Best Breakcore Albums

Composed like a pit orchestra on fire, with harmonic ambition the genre almost never attempts.
