I've loved everything by these guys though. Kindly Bent never offended me, and I enjoyed it quite a bit back in the day.

New album is good but nowhere near the quality level of this, Focus, or Portal. Kindly Bent is a solid 6.5 out of 10, not a bad album.

Kindly Bent Over was terrible but at least the new album is an improvement

I thought it was about time I checked this. Leaving me yearning for the shitty robot vox on Focus, which is weird. These cleans are bloody awful.

Who is complaining about “cleans” when this album only features the best vocoder vocals ever

"nothing will ever sound as silly as the voice at the end of Knife Prty and you know it"

First time we've ever agreed on something

decisions, I don't think that MAYAAA part I'm referring to is vocoded. It's a layered male and female voice it sounds like but I could be wrong.

There are countless examples of vocal effects being used in interesting ways, this isn't one of those occasions. The growls also may as well not exist, what do they actually bring to the table here?

growls provide an extremely obvious and q necessary contrast to the supernaturally smooth modulated cleans, am amazed this warrants any explanation

Comes across like a failed reminder that this is supposed to be 'heavy' in some way, almost out of obligation.

should've just gone the whole hog and released a synth pop record

Will always be the best comeback album ever, nothing comes remotely close.
