I'm not exactly a huge Aphex Twin fan, but I've liked a lot of his stuff before. However, this album is so meh. Nothing really goes anywhere and most of it feels like prime mashup/collaboration material, not stand alone tracks. Largely forgettable.

I thought it was good, nothing stellar though. Computer Controlled Acoustic Instruments pt2 EP is where it's at though. Right up there with Drukqs.

Went through the entire discography of Thousand Foot Krutch and Red.
Only to discover they were one trick ponies. (Slight exagerration, there were a handful of songs I liked)
Still, could have done better.

Eluveitie Origin was bland. The only good part was Anna Murphy's Vocals. The metal sounded like a mediocre version of The Black Dahlia Murder with folk instruments that were kinda just there..

Spor - Caligo (2015)

A bunch of my friends are super into this record right now and I barely got through one run through. I guess I only like drum n' bass percussion when it's surrounded by IDM pads and bloops. The EDM-style stuff just grates.

Found both albums to be highly mediocre, if not poor. The only good thing about it is the album art.

It's much better than the two you posted.

I luv this group and i really like their 'Try out' and 'Black & Noir' albums but this one sounds a bit uninspired.
im having a hard time getting into its vibe unlike their other albums but im still giving it a shot anyway hoping it will grow on me.

Kendrick Lamar: to pimp a butterfly (2015)
Ive never been a big fan of his but some of the songs on here are just BAD to me. Ive never said kendrick was bad just i wasn't a big fan. The production itself brings the album down for me

The production is by FAR the best thing about the album. In fact, I wish Kendrick wasn't on it at times. And I'd argue that you must not have heard good kid mad city if you think this is the only material you have felt the need to call "bad". Easily a step up.

x5 the production is solid.
