Yager actively switches it up between heavy pizzicato plucks on the double bass and manic, scraping bow work that can sound like anything from a wailing elephant to a piece of metal slicing across a blackboard.

As summer dries into an autumn beyond anticipation, as levels of grief, trauma and crisis compound, this album provides a space of empathy for the thoughts few of us frequently confront.
— Daniel Boscaljon, Little Village


Raucousness and mystery go hand-in-hand, and the listener is simply along for the ride. Where Wombat finds its groove is in its penchant for the impulsive. Music forgoes melody in search of eerie texture and rhythm stands still in favor of a timeless oblivion, giving rise to fiery explosions that slowly flame out.
— Vanessa Ague, The Road to Sound

Bassist Will Yager’s performance was mesmerizing, and he handled the experimental qualities of the piece with ease.
— Addie Bushnell, The Daily Iowan
