Five years in, Burial Waves have delivered a recording that clearly captures all the elements that set them apart: ambitious, cohesive, lean, and hungry. "Washed Clean" features the strengths of every member of the band but is decidedly greater than the sum of its parts.
"Washed Clean" is a profound evolution from "Holy Ground," their 2020 debut EP. No rock style is left unturned, yet they all clearly come from the same creative hive-mind of the band.
