I realize this is definitely just opinion vs. opinion, but would you say that was a hasty remark?
Well, yes, a bit exaggerated I guess. It depends heavily on what album we're speaking of. For example from Crime Slunk Scene from 2006, I love his song Soothsayer, but everything else on there is a bore or even irritating to listen to to me. Albums like Population Override, Electric Tears, Colma and Shadows Between the Sky have a higher ratio of good to bad tunes, but I do feel like overall, he puts out a lot of mediocre material with a few truly good songs sprinkled here and there across his discography.
