| 2.5 average | Jots EMERITUS | September 30th 15 | better than his string of This Is What I Do releases, for the most part. there's a bit of an interesting narrative buried
beneath everything, and Jason is great at taking concrete noises and accentuating them for extra oomph, but his
production on this is a bit lazy. there's an overlong rainfall recording, some chopped-and-screwed variation of The
Sweet's "Fox on the Run", and some other questionable choices. but, parts of the album are pretty thoughtful - there's a
vocal excerpt at the beginning of the second half that won me over a bit. a good portion of this resembles the tiring
effect of dealing with semi-interested people in a professional environment whose droll demeanours begin to have an
adverse affect on your own psyche - sorta reminds me of Office Space or something. My Machine builds an
interesting concept initially... but doesn't really capitalize on it. i suppose some of this might be inspired by his
answering machine or whatever but i couldn't be bothered to look into the backstory tbqh
tl; dr - probably one of his better recent releases, but check Much To My Demise or Songs About Nothing if
you want to get into Lescalleet
