2.0 poorTheManMachine | June 13th 17

Two years after this prince of puerility pop's exceptional debut comes this impetuous ah-fuck-it protest-against-music successor. Sorely missing Nick Sylvester's big ol fun+refined house beats is missing the point, but also inescapable given the soloed lazy lumpy lo-fi rock approach taken here. "Just wanna play my own way" -- of course, do your thang, let that 4-track hiss, shear it down, stray from protocol. But why not just cultivate these tunes -- and about half of em really are tunes -- into something just a bit more steadily recorded? Smooth out that misshapen shambling into something tolerable? In the moment detachment and an artist's whim can have mixed results I spose. Props for going there, but it didn't do much for a voice I kinda love/can't stand.
