It's at least worth the space it takes up on my hard drive but
I highly doubt I'll be listening to it in 30 years when remembering the albums of my youth.
Get Lucky's still pretty good though. And that other Pharrel track's pretty decent. And Doin' It Right I guess, although that one doesn't count because it's just a hollow attempt at an Animal Collective track.

I feel completely the same. It's almost as if you're forced to like it because of all the rave reviews and media attention that this album is getting.. Sooner or later people will realize that 'The emperor has no clothes".
Anyhow I must admit that (only) from a purely sonic point of view,RAM sounds very impressive.
This is because most people believe that things like: talented musicians,expensive equipment and state of the art recording studios have become completely redundant. According to these guys with a 300 dollar laptop bought at your local Walmart you can obtain similar if not better results.....Daft Punk showed them the abyssal difference.
