compare the earlier single/ep versions to the songs in this album. Its night and day. Mixing somehow gets worse when previous to this releasing, i was wishing the earlier songs had better production. The best example i can think of is the original release of Killing Time's drop, it has absolutely no impact in this newer version. That and so much is going on at the same time that its just such a confusing mess of a listen. I was also extremely hyped for new releases from them, but now that ... read more
Since The Ugly Art I've been into Machine Girl. I was young, so I undoubtedly wasn't critiquing the album with any expertise; I just liked it. Over 6 years later with the release of this album, I'm confused.

It is AI and there is no doubt about it. No animation technique moves like that, no 3d modelling technique creates objects that blend like that, it is AI. I'm not "guessing" nor did i just simply "look", I'm using my experience to make an observation thats pretty cut and dry.

"@QMA Yes they did. My guess is that Matt was lied to. No method, let alone whatever the "3D blending technique" was, looks like that. If they used 3D models to create those visuals, I'd love to see them. I want to take Matt's word that there was no AI, but even a monkey could tell by looking at the video. Please go look for yourself. This is coming from someone who has years of experience modelling, animating, and rendering."
