| Not like anything they've done before, and that's a good thing (even though I loved their other albums). It's like a love-child from Tycho and T.Rex (If T.Rex had synths instead of guitars). I suspect this album is going to cause quite a bit of controversy, but I'm willing to bet it might be my AOTY (Sorry Kendrick). |
