Slice (EP)


Slice is a 2023 extended play album by British band O. It has received positive reviews from critics.

Reception

Slice received 4 out of 5 stars in DIY from Daisy Carter for demonstrating "just how much can be done with a pair of drumsticks, a baritone sax, and some significant pedal wizardry", resulting in "a project that’s short but sweet, cohesive and well-rounded". In Dork, Rebecca Kestevan gave this release 5 out of 5, stating that "O. demonstrate a level of musicianship which borders on the outrageous" and called it "a funky, perfectly ordered disorder, which feels on the brink of falling into total chaos at any given moment". Laura Molloy noted the synergy of the musicians in NME and gave this release 4 out of 5 stars for displaying how the band "expertly tread the line between the urgent energy of experimental rock and jazz improvisation". Editors at Pitchfork scored this release 7.0 out of 10 and critic Stuart Berman praised the mix of jazz and rock influences that are held together with "a harmonious balance of improvisation and rock-solid composition".
