Expanding on their signature collision of abrasive electronics and warped pop sensibilities, PEACE + WAR finds the duo self-observant and strikingly tender in moments. Over 19 tracks, lyrics are whispered across biting distortion as they twist and turn into Ike's bruising electronic production and Maria's gleeful, mangled vocals. Vulnerability and volatility coincide throughout the record and the thrill is in the unexpected where subtle humor and provocation are central.
