For me, that&#8217;s Lip Critic&#8217;s <em>Theft World<\/em>. Yes, since the sophomore album of the New York electro punks came out, I&#8217;ve been inundated with ads of the album&#8217;s existence on all forms of social media. They&#8217;ve been compared to their label mates, IDLES, Fontaines D.C., and fellow New York noise rock experimentalists, Model\/Actriz, which, for me, checks all the boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">So yeah, I eventually checked it out, and it has all the ingredients I should love: noisy electronic work, post-hardcore vocals mixed with some rapid-fire voice, and double drum sets, but as a whole, it just doesn&#8217;t have the sauce for me. It could be because it sometimes sounds like Fred Durst doing his best Death Grips or even Rage Against the Machine impression on tracks like &#8220;Jackpot,&#8221; &#8220;Debt Forest,&#8221; and &#8220;Shoplifting&#8221; or maybe just the chaotic everything in the sink mentality that fringes on hyperpop, digital core, and post-punk in between songs. Usually, I&#8217;m fine without albums that don&#8217;t pick a lane and experiment, but I don&#8217;t know, this one just annoyed me more than anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I think this group needs a bit more variety in their song builds, because most just kick it into high gear immediately and continue on and on with no real cathartic resolution. I had the same issue with the latest Crack Cloud album. The theme of the album is cool; theft of everything based on a fan attempting to steal the identity of the lead singer, and the lyrics are well thought out, but it&#8217;s the execution that really falls flat for me on a song like &#8220;My Blush (Strength of the Critic).&#8221; It could just be a simple choice of taste, but there are songs on this thing I&#8217;ll be avoiding for the foreseeable future. Maybe you&#8217;ll dig it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Theft World\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/6UQvKJID9tTP81IIFRt9Dk?si=WLgDQhaaRyySV0yex4N0qg&amp;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever listened to an album or even an artist that the algorithm and your past musical tastes all point to you having to love?
