ILLENIUM - ILLENIUM
57

As a hardcore Illenium fan who gave Ascend a perfect score, this new album is bafflingly disappointing. This was the first time I've had such a numb reaction to an Illenium album, and I'm left so confused with this release. I've seen Illenium say about this album that he's gotten "a bit over" the future bass/melodic dubstep sound that he's done for so long because it's been done by so many other people, and I imagine it also has to do with him getting bored or running out of ideas ... read more

This isn't mind-blowing, but I'd be doing a disservice if I labelled it anything less than great.

It starts out with probably my least favorite track, and it doesn't have a particularly fantastical ending, but even those issues don't do much to harm the listening experience.

I genuinely don't think there's any bad tracks here. There's also not many (if any) ... read more

CMK's performance is the best I've ever heard from him with lyrics I (mostly) love, combined with Illenium's fantastic production. It feels so unique within the boundaries of what you would expect out of Illenium and his sound and I think it worked out amazingly.
