“A belligerent shot of heavy metal and hardcore, math rock and no wave*, Entrench* is the Winnipeg band KEN mode's fifth album in 10 years, but the Matt Bayles-produced collection has the unbridled energy of a debut, down to frontman Jesse Matthewson's ferocious rants about idealism, middle-age, and religion.”
“On its fifth record Canada's KEN mode continues to translate the sounds of post-hardcore and noise rock with some sludge metal chic.”
