Arca’s XXXXX is praised as a wild, brilliant and physically charged follow-up to her five-album Kick series. The review argues that Venezuelan producer-vocalist Alejandra Ghersi’s appeal lies in her ability to make challenging electronic music feel visceral, combining experimental ambition with a direct, bodily impact.

The album moves between frenetic Aphex Twin-like electronics, high-tempo footwork and abrasive club music, while also drawing on classical composition and pop. Tracks including Everything, Fxck, Willow and Raver are highlighted for their intensity and disorienting sound design; the reviewer considers XXXXX among Arca’s densest and strongest records.
