In the late 2000s and early 2010s, plenty of indie bands sprang up with crystalline guitars, cryptic lyrics, and an aversion to sharing basic biographical details. But those other acts didn’t have a singer like Wu Lyf’s Ellery Roberts. Go Tell Fire to the Mountain supported Roberts’ shredded growl with patient post-rock builds, and the result was pure catharsis. These songs were so cuttingly earnest—“I love you forever,” Roberts rasped on the opener, “L Y F”—that it almost came as no surprise when the group broke up afterward. Who could sustain such intensity; who would want to? It wasn’t always easy to tell what Roberts was hollering about, but Wu Lyf’s best songs, like the sweeping “We Bros,” could have you chanting along, caught up in a frenzy of oddball solidarity. –Marc Hogan

在2000年代末和2010年代初，许多独立乐队借着闪亮亮的吉他、晦涩的歌词和对人物细枝末节描写的摒弃等等风格而崛起。但是很多乐队并不能像Wu Lyf的Ellery Roberts那般演绎歌曲。“Go Tell Fire to the Mountain”借其容忍度高的后摇式结构以支持Roberts破碎的咆哮，其结果是纯粹的宣泄。这些歌曲都是表现出了极端的真诚------在“I love you forever”中Roberts在开瓶器上伴随刺耳的声音刻下了“L Y F”，这让所有人对后来乐队的解散毫不意外。谁能承受这样的强烈的情绪呢；而且，谁愿意呢?很多时候搞清Roberts在为什么而声嘶力竭并不容易，但Wu Lyf的一些优秀作品，比如风靡一时的“We Bros”，可以让你不禁随之哼唱，同时沉浸在古怪的狂热之中。
