Isn't this the same guy who started the Daft Punk thread in EYKIW a while ago?
And I see that Supersymmetry is the new Less Than You Think.
The ending of Supersymmetry is far more palatable than Less Than You Think's. The point of the latter is to be irritating, so yeah. And I would say Supersymmetry is the better song overall, though I would probably appreciate Less Than You Think far more today if it just ended after 2 minutes.
One track that has gotten better for me is Porno. Really liking that one now, which means disc 2 is thoroughly dominating disc 1 at this point. I pretty much lose interest in the latter after Here Comes the Night Time.
It's an art project.Oh hai this is out huh? For somebody who doesn't want to backread however many pages what's the general reaction to this so far?
I downloaded the album, so there's no hidden song there. Flashbulb Eyes is the only song I skip on every listen, and I end the album before Supersymmetry gets all weird. So it's a near perfect experience for me.
Flashbulb Eyes is a highlight for me, though I'll probably be in the minority there. You Already Know and Joan of Arc (especially that hackneyed backing chorus) could be jettisoned and my experience with the album would not be hurt.
Buying this today. Be on alert, because some hot takes will likely follow.
Porno just keeps getting better and better.
That's always been my experience.
Oh, wait...
