"I like this album. Don't love it. It has a very particular aesthetic but sometimes it gets lost in some unjustified weirdness. Maybe this one is a grower, will see in the future." Reply

"First. :) Before hitting my teens I used to listen to almost exclusively Jean Michel Jarre's music (and before that Italian schlagers). My introduction to Kavinsky's music came about when I wanted to update my contempt for hipsters' music taste by looking up what kinda music is behind all these w..." [+] Reply
"The new nine inch nails album sounds like it continues where "The Fragile" left off. So does this album. However, if you want to hear what the new nine inch nails album could've been under an alternate reality where the tracks donned less keyboards and were less like dance tracks and more like th..."

Take lead singer Winston Yellen’s beautiful voice and skilled songwriting and you’ve got this impressive work. The album starts off with the acapella “Faithful Heights" that will immediately grab your at..." [+] Reply
