"Hippie Death Cult have given us another fucking peach of an album that Dark Juan can’t pick any holes in and believe me, Dark Juan has tried. The production and mix is perfect. The performances are all worryingly good"
"Hippie Death Cult have scored 234,897,743/10 for a really remarkably challenging record that is that rarest of things, being easy to listen to"
- www.ever-metal.com/2023/10/25/hippie-death-cult-helichrysum/
“Pushing boundaries, following their own path, this is music to immerse and lose yourself in.” - www.femalefrontedpower.com/reviews/hippie-death-cult-helichrysum/
"Hippie Death Cult’s Helichrysum provides a refreshing escape from the typical in stoner metal"
- elevarmagazine.com/hippie-death-cult-brews-heavy-kaleidoscopic-sound-with-new-doom-metal-album/
"There have been a ton of excellent albums released in 2023 and Helichrysum is right up there with the best of them. It’s a heavy, memorable and superbly played collection of tunes that you should seek out forthwith."

"Helichrysum is unapologetically deep, emotive and heavy, showcasing an artistic growth that is uninhibited from flourishing."

If you're in the mood for slow-burning riffs and smoke vocals, then you're gonna love this.

"Helichrysum IS a more focused effort with a grander sound, some serious soul, and maybe the one two punch of the year with Red Giant and Toxic Annihilator." ~ Rich Piva (Musipedia of Metal, FuzzDoomRip)
"Not only do this band sound tighter than before, they sound more vital, more forceful and a hell of a lot more exciting, long may that continue."

"Not a weak track to be found here, and honestly, any band that wants to perfectly blend doom and psychedelic rock needs to use this as the blueprint. Outstanding!"
- www.seaoftranquility.org/reviews.php?op=showcontent&id=24548
"In short: if you think all stoner doom sounds the same, Hippie Death Cult is here to eradicate that notion."
- www.invisibleoranges.com/hippie-death-cult-red-giant/
"It’s been a while since I’ve heard such a well-rounded, thoughtful composition, particularly from a modern band."
- distortedsoundmag.com/album-review-helichrysum-hippie-death-cult/
"Helichrysum’ (2023) is the band’s proof of concept, an album named after a genus of sunflowers often referred to as “everlasting” and “immortelle,” which I suppose says something for the group’s own tenacity and inventiveness"
