Failure
Location Lost
Both Wild Type Droid, now, this, feel a bit like Failure is overthinking things. Relatively bereft of hooks, energy, riffs. Songs are structurally all over the place. Ken's vocal melodies are rather droll and unmemorable, and he sounds tired. Some of the production is cool but that's not enough on its own. The arpeggiated guitar chords get tiresome. It feels like the band is leaning rather hard towards Radiohead-esque esoterica but that was never really their strongsuit, in my mind. The album's not bad or anything but the songs fail to meet their potential and cool sections are mired by boring sections within the same song. It's all just rath
