Solid return from the legendary IDM duo Boards of Canada
Favourites: Prophecy At 1420 MHz, Hydrogen Helium Lithium Leviathan, Naraka, Blood In The Labyrinth, Arena Americanada, You Retreat In Time And Space
It's not the best but it's special to me so I'll give it an 80
Favourites: Matte Black, 1000 Blunts, Escape from Babylon
Something being avant-garde doesn't necessarily make it good and this is direct evidence
Favourites:
Movements 4 to 7
The 4th movement was very.. moving
89>80
On my second listen I found that the production is too repetitive, mixing is mediocre and overall it's just not as varied in its sounds and themes. The vocals are also extremely hard to comprehend which detracts from the overall experience of the album.
Excellent production and a few very good thematic ideas throughout this album which I'd love to see Joji work on more on his next album

On onemorealbum's review of Berliner Philharmoniker / Kirill Petrenko - Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 6 "Pathétique"
"A bit late to this but there's certainly emotion in this work - it's mostly just about how exactly a person percieves emotions. Often I struggle to find apparent emotions in lyrical music/in the lyrics of music which makes me tend to find more emotion in instrumentals. This is, of course, one of the greatest works of romantic classical music, and you should definitely try listening to more of Tchaikovsky's stuff."
