Ultraísta - Ultraísta

The entire album is bathed in the most lovely synths of the year.

i think its ok. 6 out of 10.

Nice vocals and, yes, the synths are quite lovely as well. This deserves more ears!

It won't get those ears. It got a 6 from Franciscus and Pitchfork.

I liked the few tracks that were previewed before the release but then when I heard the whole thing it was a bit disappointing. Very samey. Almost the same synth sounds in every single track.

exactly this

I think it's the song writing that kind of lacks. Nothing really grabs. But other than that it sounds really really good. Some tracks are still real good:)

Apparently people forgot about this band?

This is not how I imagine ultraist poetry at all. Except for the fact that I find both the ultraist poetry and this band to be pretty meh.

Thread necromancy at it's finest but, maaaaan did this album get forgotten about. Still spinning it to this day.

The whole package is phenomenal. The percussion, vocals, synths and even the bass is gorgeous.

Always loved the lyrics too. "You're a centrefold that will not close"

There's a new album in the works based on some clues Nigel Godrich has dropped.
