Head Void is the sixth studio album by American indie rock band From Indian Lakes. It has received positive reviews from critics.
Reception
Sunnyvale of Sputnikmusic rated this album 3.5 out of 5, calling it "an album with a lot of great songs" that improves upon the 2019 release Dimly Lit, but ultimately "a mild disappointment in its role as From Indian Lakes' long-awaited return".[3] Editors at Stereogum chose this as Album of the Week and critic Chris DeVille emphasized the listening experience of being overwhelmed by the drones and rhythms in the music, combined with language that "is poetic and thought-provoking, not opaque but leaving much to the imagination".[4]
Staff at Consequence of Sound included this among the best albums of May, with Paolo Ragusa writing that "it sounds like mastery.".[5]
