Has some decent songs on it, but it's a bit too stale and boring at times.

Really don't like this album 9 out of ten days. Sometimes the really silly, stultified aspect that resides in me just shows up and thinks it's his jam for a day or 2.

One of these albums I'm really sorry it was ever published. I listen to the most despairing Joy Division song after this and feel I have at last found something living and warm.

I'm sorry to say I'm a fence-straddler on this one, as it seems to inspire a lot of strong opinions (positive and negative). I did see them perform live once, an experience that was somehow less inspiring than their albums -- for some reason, they thought a fancy light show was a good match to the minimal vibe of their music. Whatever.

They have some songs I like, but an album worth of Jamie's drab vocal style is usually too much for me.

I thought it couldn't get worse than this album, and then Jamie xx went solo.

hahaha. generally feel the same, but I think there was one time I actually listened and enjoyed it, but that was like one out of 20 times.

Strange, this is the only album I've listened to today. Gave it a spin this morning.
