It's interesting how I have heard three records from this dude and they could have come from three entirely different bands. That alone warrants respect. This one explores a more electronica direction on nearly every track, boasting a lot of Cynic-esque autotuned vocals and synth works. I like the intent, but I don't think it quite works, especially in the mid record. 3 sounds like a weird house remix of itself, and on 4 the mix of shoegaze + electronica + 070 Shakes vox really doesn't feel coherent. 5 feels skippable. Thankfully the later record improves a lot. 6 is less electronica more in the vein of his prior work and simply works better. 7 is a sweet interlude abruptly transitioning into 8 but thankfully 8 quickly calms down into a cool track with a nice conclusion. 9 shows a bit of an abrasive side here with some riffage and is frankly cool, but again the overprocessed vox feel out of place. 10 is nice and has cool moments like the bridge at min 3. The very early two tracks kind of make the electronic sound work too, 1 being an interesting opener with a very cool intro and more of a post-rock vibe to it - still retaining solid shoegaze lushness, and 2 boasting some nice prominent drums but again with the vox not quite fitting. This record feels like a somewhat failed but commendable experiment. 3.0
