Fake presented the fourth studio album, Providence 2xLP/CD, in the spring of 2017, featuring Prurient (founder of Hospital Productions) and Raphaelle Standell-Preston (of Braids) as guest musicians, with favorable reviews in undefined and Ninja Tune, as well as [url=https://discogs.com/label/153965]Bleep[/url]'s "Album of the Week" honorary mention.
