quoth Posted October 26 Report Share Posted October 26 i am the carnosaur of Aphex Twin and if any of u picked up his new album called DRUNKQS and comapre it with his old shit will know that u are gettin sooooooooooo short-handed...i mean there is like 2 or 3 DECENT songs on this double cd and fuckin most songs are like fuckin 2 minutes long...WTF?!?!?! its veryyyyyyy disappointing..i been waiting 5 years for this album to come out and cant belive its incredibly shitty. It sounds like...A realllllllllly twisted horrific modern soundtrack to A CLOCKWORK ORANGE but the album just sucks hehe. oh well...any other Aphex Twin/Richard D. James afficianado's on the board who also feel the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xpander Posted October 26 Report Share Posted October 26 it's kind of surprising to hear this kind of talk from you but I guess when you put someone on a pedestal, they sometime tends to fall over.Then again...I dunno, the only RDJ track I know is Bucephalus Bouncing Ball...

I just expected that same old aphex twin-y sound.....and im really pissed cause supposedly this is his last time he is ever puttin out and im like ah man he put out a fuckin DUD??

I would guess he's trying to "progress"...as some artists do...However, sometimes that tends to go horribly wrong... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixenfoxxy Posted October 27 Report Share Posted October 27 Aww that sucks. I haven't bought the new CD but I loved the old one. I paid waaaaay too much to have it imported from England when I was like, 13, I actually forgot about it and left it at home when I came here and now you're makin' me wish I had it I guess I'll steer clear of the new one...
