[@austinkendall4796]

First thoughts: About half the album was released as singles already. Overall, I really like it. I think it doesn’t match “Tyranny” but might surpass “Virtue” in quality. There does seem to be a vision here, creating consistency among the tracks. They are leaning into the microtonal Arabic rock with autotune, classical inspired chord progressions, and more guitar. The new addition seems to be that Casablancas has added an octaver pedal to his vox, going down an octave. “Overture” opens. Making the classical influence explicit. “Square Wave” Starts with a ‘riff’ lifted straight from Joy Division, but then goes into an Arabic autotune verse. The chorus is powerful, but I think it’s just the Strokes’ “The Adults are Talking” chorus. Both use a IV vii I progression and the drum beat is similar: highly syncopated, with the hi-hat opening on the 3rd beat. I wonder if this is tongue in check or an exercise in showing what his two bands can do with similar material. “Prophecy of the dragon” Fits Casablancas vision of having the third song on an album being driven by a metal riff. Released last year. The chorus is weird and unconventional. “7 horses”, released days before the album. Strong song, epic chorus, gives us what we want: those arpeggiated guitar chords with a cyberpunk synth sheen, Casablancas crooning in autotune. Has a baroque minor tonality, emphasized by the guitar outro. A good example of what the Voidz are all about. “Spectral Analysis” Human sadness part 2. No one can do it like Casablancas. Very stirring, powerful, achingly sad. Great chord progression. New sound for the voidz. Strong Radiohead influences, reminiscent of the songs on the “a moon shaped pool” album. Or could be a coincidence of both composers being influenced by classical. “Flexorcist” Fun song, came out last October. I think the originality of execution in a song like this is sometimes lost on people. It’s the genius of Voidz songs. Taken as a whole, it feels like a pretty conventional 80s synth pop song. But if you pull parts and look at them, they are odd/unique. “Perseverance- 1C2S” Beautiful song. Subtle, gentle drum groove with congas. Big chorus, but understated, heavily compressed vocal. Strong release because it’s a foil to the non-diatonic verse. Chorus is followed by a characteristic Voidz guitar solo, with light accompaniment from second lead guitar. “All the Same”. Released as a single 7 months ago. I didn’t love it then because it didn’t have that idiosyncratic dark and gloomy Voidz sound but put in the context of a Voidz album with some of those songs, it works better, it’s bright and sunny, (though the lyrics are not), and is a reprieve from the darkness. With that, it’s a good song with interesting ideas, a repeating guitar melody with a contour that creates a bouncy rhythm. The bridge goes minor and gives us a good distorted guitar solo, before transitioning with a Strokes-like alternating inversions of arpeggios, back to the chorus. “When will the time of these bastards end” odd song. Has a shuffle rhythm and downtuned vocals. The arrangement of the chorus seems almost designed to build up then cut off before arriving at the height. “Walk off (outro)” overture played on guitar, choppily. Overall: a great album, with great songs and I’m sure it’ll reward repeat listens due to sonic textures and artifacts buried in the mix.
