The painfully robotic rhythm section, the insane shredding (by Strokes standards), Julian's raw, overcompressed, sometimes half-drunk vocals and songwriting, the pretty bad and bloated yet more accessible (?) production, the crazily large number of songs here (14!), the unusually gloomy/pensive/IDK what the right word is (again, by Strokes standards) vibe looming over the entire album and especially in songs like "Heart In a Cage" and "On the Other Side", and how unfocused all of it is. It's basically a mid life crisis in audio form and I love it.Thomas Azier Love, DisorderlyI originally had this as a 4.5 but after listening to it in a car with surround speakers it gets a 5. Highlights: Concrete, Entertainment, If There?s A God, Open Your Arms4.5 superbArctic Monkeys Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm NotArctic Monkeys Favourite Worst NightmareClub Of The Sons Young QuantaLiving Colour Time's UpMutemath Odd SoulHighlights: Odd Soul, Blood Pressure, Quarantine, All Or NothingMutemath MutemathMutemath VitalsThis one has grown on me tremendously as the years have gone by. With the exception of a few questionable lyrical choices, I think this stands toe to toe in quality with their debut and Odd Soul.Mutemath Voice In the SilenceThomas Azier The Inventory of Our DesirerNot as consistent or accessible as his last outing, but contains some of his best work to date. Also it's super jazzy, if ryou're into that sort of thing. Highlights: Faces, Skin & Blister, What Does It Mean To Be Free, Slow Revolution r4.0 excellentCake Comfort EagleDepeche Mode Playing The AngelLiving Colour ShadeMutemath Play DeadNine Inch Nails Add Violence(Bad puns removed) Recommended Tracks: Less Than, This Isn't The PlaceNine Inch Nails Year ZeroNine Inch Nails Hesitation Marks3.5 greatAlbert Hammond Jr Francis TroubleEarthsuit Kaleidoscope SuperiorEverything here is extremely chaotic. And I love it.Nine Inch Nails The SlipTwenty One Pilots Scaled and IcyRecommended Tracks: Choker, Shy Away, No Chances, The Outside3.0 goodCage The Elephant Social CuesCake Pressure ChiefRecommended tracks: Wheels, Take It All Away, Carbon MonoxideLiving Colour CollideoscopeI like this album, it?s nice, very experimental, although Song Without Sin is the worst opening track Living Colour has made. I can listen to Time?s Up just fine but after a few listens of this album it makes me want to stop listening around track 8 or 9. Highlights: Flying, Nightmare City, Sacred GroundMutemath ArmisticeEhhhh I don't know about this one. This album is basically just the sound of a record label breathing down the neck of an otherwise excellent artist. Fuck you Warner Bros, you're the worst. 2.85/5Remo Drive A Portrait Of An Ugly ManLast time I checked this out I concluded that it was depressingly ok. Now in my eyes it's depressingly not as good as it could have been. This is pretty solid, but the production and lyrics (who TF writes an entire verse about iPhones) hold this back from being excruciatingly solid. Oh yeah, and the Twitter drama. That too. 3.25/5 (3.25 --> 3.6) Mercy is so mid that it makes this look a million times better in comparison. Wtf happened to this band2.5 averageElectric Music Electric MusicEx-Kraftwerk member goes pop-rock, and the result is an incredibly boring album. Recommended Tracks: The Young Urban ProfessionalWalk the Moon Heights2.0 poorAlbert Hammond Jr Momentary MastersPower Hungry and Caught By My Shadow are really great. The rest is just filler.Karl Bartos CommunicationThe incredibly locked-in beats, extremely bad vocoding and awkward lyrics make this an extremely tedious listen. Bartos almost sounds like he's parodying himself on most of these tracks. When he ditches one or more of these elements, however, he makes some of the best material of his solo career. Recommended Tracks: Life1.5 very poorRemo Drive MercyThe middest of mid. Any promise they might have had before is all gone now.1.0 awfulEmily Montes Emily MontesI could easily make something like this in Voloco. Why did this have to existFitz Head Up HighRecommended Tracks: N/A Worst Tracks: Slowdown, I Need A Dancefloor
