Fast Cars, Danger, Fire and Knives is quite a solid EP following Bazooka Tooth, however it's a bit underwhelming in my opinion as the production doesn't reach the highs of his last two projects that much (but some tracks have great production) and don't pull me in as much as those albums. Not much to say about this project, but it's not bad.

favourite tracks: Number Nine, Zodiaccupuncture, Winners Take All, Food Clothes Medicine
least favourite: Fast Cars

Summary: Quite Solid

On The Greatest Pac-Man Victory Ever, he even has an entire verse where ... read more

I genuinely think that you have the potential to make some great stuff, especially with this concept. You know, walking through an arcade and immersing yourselves in the games. Taking in this experience to the fullest. With your sound it's definitely something that can be done, but the majority of this album just feels unfocused and a bit messy. One major example would have to be a lot of the samples. While some are really catchy like the ones on Pac-Man, the reversed Bjork samples just feel ... read more
