Shortly after, in March 2023, Tumor released their fifth album, “Praise A Lord Who Chews But Which Does Not Consume; (Or Simply, Hot Between Worlds)”, critically acclaimed as an ambitious, “ecstatic fusion of alt-rock and R&B”, “spellbinding art rock”, and a “Romantic, corporeal, gothy” offering that disrupts “hierarchies of gender, race, desire…and performance” via its “intense magnification and worship of life, death and spirituality.” Tumor was part of the Coachella 2023 lineup.
