“Stefan Mohamed is a brilliant poet because he knows the balance between restraint and excess, the notes of sadness and anger required to make something truly, cathartically funny, and the precise timing of a distorted buzz phrase. And he’s a master of the latter, taking every one of our contemporary solecisms and platitudes and feeding them through the dream blender of poetry. Where The Revelation Tapes feels like a real evolution of an already distinctive style, though, is in its unflinching portrayal of a cultural and literal apocalypse; its elliptical and theological narrative; its infuriating, loveable and hope-laden kids who are above all else, not all right. A joyful and furious collection, and his best so far”

"If the kids are our future, then these poems follow those born into end times, searching the darkness of the unknown universe for ways in which the world can still be magical. Stefan Mohamed is an unparalleled phrase maker, and this collection is rich with typographic and repetitious play that gives these poems their dark musicality. At times tender, jubilant and unsettling, this is a deep future that feels like it is on our doorsteps, or maybe festering in our understairs cupboards on obsolete media; something that happened while we were pretending the end is future tense"

- Suzannah Evans Furnass

"A mesmeric and sprawling work of alarming talent and uniqueness … I was gripped by the storytelling, wit and complexity of this book"
