!!! release their sixth studio album, As If, through Warp . As ever, !!! are tight with their grooves yet loose with their experimentation. Opening with off-kilter funk song ‘All U Writers’ (first released as a 12” single on Record Store Day), the album plays with taut rhythms, diva house vocals, and extended disco repetitions – often on the same song, in the case of ‘Freedom! ‘15’. Elsewhere are goofball rock-outs (‘Bam City’) and raw acid dance cuts (‘I Feel So Free (Citation Needed)’). It’s an album that manages to feel totally free, yet also totally focused.
