"Twin Infinitives, or how to destroy 40 years of rock music in just over an hour."

 "After listening to it, anything, even the noise of the fridge at night... will seem like Beethoven symphonies in comparison."

The review harshly critiques Royal Trux's Twin Infinitives as a chaotic and irritating album that obliterates traditional rock music. Seen as more noise than music, it fails to balance deconstruction with artistic coherence. Despite its intention to challenge musical norms, listeners may find it repetitive and unpleasant. Yet, it prompts reflection on what defines music as opposed to mere noise. Dive into the chaos of Royal Trux’s Twin Infinitives—explore this experimental noise-rock album and decide if it’s art or just noise.

 By trying to experiment too much in the search for particular and suggestive sounds, he ended up literally destroying his work with his own hands.

 Where the hell is Morgan Delt? I ask. Because, listening to this album, I can't hear him.

Morgan Delt's second album, Phase Zero, released on Sub Pop Records, is a disappointing follow-up to his acclaimed debut. The album struggles with repetitive, disjointed sounds and lacks substance or hypnotic qualities. Despite some minor highlights, the overall result is an album that fails to connect or showcase Morgan Delt’s distinctive style, leaning too heavily on experimentation that doesn't succeed. Explore Morgan Delt's Phase Zero to hear its experimental take—decide for yourself if the risk paid off or missed the mark.

 An arid album, horribly schematic and without ideas this Misanthrop by Misanthrop.

 This is commercial neurofunk in its basest form, falsely hard and already out of breath by the second listen.

Misanthrop’s self-titled debut album spans 18 months of production but fails to deliver new ideas or excitement. Despite solid production, the tracks feel monotonous and overwritten for quick consumption. The reviewer criticizes the commercial approach that dilutes the raw energy of neurofunk. A few tracks show promise but overall the album lacks innovation and creativity. Fans of the genre might find it uninspiring. Explore Misanthrop's debut album and decide if this commercial neurofunk aligns with your taste in drum and bass.

 Stoner propulsion pins me to the onboard seat; the ship travels confidently, arrogantly and thunderously through wandering meteor showers and debris of extinct planets.

 Umberto D. can be calmly recognized as a masterpiece of neorealism and a treasure of world cinema.

 De Sica’s message can be defined as a warning: today, the character of Umberto D., combined with benevolent fate, has averted the worst, but if things do not improve, tomorrow what no one would want could happen.

Vittorio De Sica's Umberto D. is a neorealist masterpiece portraying the harsh realities of postwar Italy with clarity and dignity. Despite contemporary censorship and poor audience reaction, the film remains a vital social commentary.

Umberto D. serves as a timeless warning and plea for social awareness in cinema. Watch Umberto D. and experience the timeless power of Italian neorealism today.

 The pop-retrofuturist brilliance of Shangri-La remains an isolated episode in an album that is frankly never-ending.

 The title track, offered in two parts, proposes itself as a manifesto of Digitalism’s experimental ambitions, but feels slightly pretentious and detached from the rest.

Digitalism’s third album Mirage is an ambitious electro collection spanning 15 tracks and nearly 80 minutes. While the album showcases impressive production and a variety of styles influenced by Daft Punk and indie electro, it suffers from filler and inconsistent flow. Standout track Shangri-La shines as a refreshing highlight, but the overall length makes the listening experience somewhat tiresome. Despite its flaws, the album deserves a passing grade for effort and craftsmanship. Discover Digitalism’s Mirage and explore its ambitious electro soundscapes—stream now and experience the standout tracks!

 The new American Football is ugly. It doesn’t make sense to exist.

 American Football hasn’t matured with their audience: their audience fell in love, saw other things grow like Owen which anyway damn are not American Football, and now they face this thing.

The review expresses strong disappointment in American Football's LP2, criticizing it for lacking the emotional depth and subtlety of the original 1999 album. The album's heavy reliance on predictable arpeggios and vocals reminiscent of Mike Kinsella's Owen project do not resonate well.
