I don't think I've heard this album, but I definitely know this band... at least in passing. They're not on my hard drive so I don't know if I've listened to them, but I'm feeling like I have.

Sorry about that, man. Despite what everyone here thinks, I'm not actually perfect and I do make mistakes. Thanks for pointing it out. The adjustment has now been made in the OP. I've also moved Electrophonic Tonic down below Anteater, as he joined after him.

Puppy-dogs and rainbows, everyone!

Okay, the best way I can do this is to use my "Love or Hate?" rating system, as some people didn't give ratings out of 5 or 10, so the first album scores thus:

Love: 4
Like: 9
Meh: 6

Which gives it a sold Like rating, which I'll post in the OP later.

The Black Ryder - Buy The Ticket, Take A Ride

I don't have too much experience in this genre of music but maybe it just wasn't the right time for me to hear this. I appreciated the first half of the album but those last two tracks definitely got to me. I kept checking to see if it went to a different song but it was still the same song for 6 mins at a pop. I have no commentary on the lyrics because I was multi-tasking at the time so I wasn't listening intently to the lyrical content. I will definitely give this album another listen instead of completely writing it off based off of this first listen.

If I was rating it, I would give it a 3/5.
