Fifty Grand's sophomore EP, "Exceptional", released September 25th, 2012 via Aural Sects.
Title track premiered exclusively on Vice.
Here's what the critics are saying:
"Fifty Grand's excursions into more orchestral, cinematic soundscapes on Exceptional were a welcome evolution from her no less brilliant but more guttural debut." - The Skinny
"It’s what inconsolable Professor X’s teenage students would listen to after getting their asses kicked in the Danger Room. It’s what you might hear at an opening in some dank art gallery from the Blade Runner universe."
- Chart Attack
"Exceptional shows a lot of restraint, not just pounding through cascade after cascade of atmospherics. The last track, “Now We Only Wave”, is pretty epic, mixing ambient, orchestral, and dark house sounds into one beast as strange and lovely as those Baum-iam creatures on the cover." - Mishka
