Theft World by Lip Critic
#2
completely a frenetic, dark mess inspired by identity theft and conspiracy after an obsessed fan stole frontman Bret Kaser’s identity and made hundreds of purchases in his name. The fan believed that Lip Critic had hidden messages and mythology in their music. So, Lip Critic drew from this insane experience to craft an album that is equally insane. By plunging headfirst into these conspiratorial themes and building on the dark, heavy electronics of their sound, Lip Critic have created one of the knottiest and gnarliest records of the year so far.
