BIO

"The set's five cryptically titled compositions alternately bristle with rage and fear, even as they refuse to abandon hope in a world poised on the brink of careering down a wobbly track to Armageddon." – The Wire

"The music is taut, suffused with a ragged but determined power that has few equals among their contemporaries… Superb." – BBC

"Godspeed You! Black Emperor continue to make music of immense power and beauty, no matter where they put the exclamation point." – Dusted

"Simply devastating: horns, strings, two drummers, several guitarists, all combining to create a labyrinthine music of anger, sadness, compassion, and -- towards the end -- defiant hope." – Observer Review

"Yanqui is more restrained, foregoing some of the crashing crescendos and silent interludes of Lift Your Skinny Fists… for a more organic, flowing approach… It's beautiful, intense, and a little frightening." – Delusions of Adequacy

"It's the perfect distillation of their work to this point; capturing the Montreal collective at their most haunting, resigned and often at their most explosive." – Leeds Guide
