Its his bands eighth record, and one that finds the ambitious group assembling its most texturally complex material yetdespite the fraught inspiration underscoring its restive lyrics. Alongside the blistering drums and scorched-earth riffs that first galvanized Piles dedicated fanbase, the band has incorporated elegiac strings, mystifying vocal corrosions, and haunting synths. From the creeping fear of cinematic opener It Comes Closer to the euphorically ascending keys on ego-shattering closer Neon Gray, All Fiction is an ornate, carefully paced study on the subjectivity of perception, the data-shaping despotism of big tech, and the connections between anxiety and death. In its most vital moments, its also a resolute recommitment to the restorative significance of art and imagination.
