You must be kidding! This album is one of their best. It's also a grower. It also received mostly good reviews: http://www.metacritic.com/music/synthetica/critic-reviews

The album is excellent! Highlights: The Void, Artificial Nocturne, Synthetica, Breathing Underwater, Speed the Collapse.

Becky Jones aka Saint Saviour will release her new album "Union" on 25 June 2012. More info here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/musicblog/...-call-this-home The first single is "I Call This Home". Very interesting song and video: kDc1ayNvdjo Just to refresh your memory, here are the Groove Armada songs featuring Saint Saviour: I Won't Kneel a-k7xUIYsZU Paper Romance 74cQF2ebgOM Time and Space AI7q_DQye_w

Is you mind playing tricks? :lol:

No. Garbage wanted NYKOP to sound a bit rough. Don't forget that Vig produced the successful "made in garage" album "Wasting Light" by Foo Fighters before NYKOP. Anyway, "Not Your Kind of People" is a brilliant album. It's my favorite record released in 2012 so far.

Nothing shocking. The awful truth... :D

Congrats for the winner & for Freeze for hosting this UP9. I think there's a slight problem with the voting system: if you vote your favorite songs (as I did so far) there's a possibility that you will "sabotage" your own song... :arrr:

Sorry but that will slow down the results list a lot. I want the results as fast as possible.

With shorter verses and stronger chorus would be better. But I still like as it is.

Indeed! You can listen to it from start to finish without any problem. Their best after Garbage & Version 2.0? Definitely! :dance:

Few days until the album is released. :cheer:

R.I.P. MCA.

One more Art of Noise song: Art of Love. I think there are some common elements between this song and "Loaded" by Primal Scream (esp. the rhythm). LWtEMx3rSqA

I wonder if your song is among those "boring ones"... :D

If you like more chill-out songs, try also Art of Noise's "The Ambient Collection". They are very good at the art of sampling.

Recommended: 1. the compilation "The Best of the Art of Noise" from 1988 2. the compilation "Daft" from 1986 3. their album "(Who's Afraid Of?) the Art of Noise!" from 1984 Their last album "The Seduction of Claude Debussy" also contains this hidden gem, "Metaforce" featuring Rakim: fENQF0C7Jso

This edition is weak. My song is by far the best one. The prize of the worst song goes to Elliphant - Tekkno scene. Unlistenable c***. :puke2:

Great first single. A little complaint: it's a little bit too long. "The riff reminds me of that horrible Kasabian song. Not as good as I was expecting" What "horrible song" you're talking about? "Fire"? That song is far from horrible.

I know very few songs/artists. Probably the UP edition with the most unknown songs so far.

I recommend you to put all pictures on the left or center. It looks much better (esp. in center).

But you called one of their album "tacky". adjective /ˈtakē/  tackier, comparative; tackiest, superlative (of glue, paint, or other substances) Retaining a slightly sticky feel; not fully dry adjective  tackier, comparative; tackiest, superlative Showing poor taste and quality I have my reasons to hate that song. Not just because it's terrible but because it finished one place above "my" song on UP7. Rant over.

Actually the other tracks of Rustie sound better than his terrible song "Ultra Thizz". :lol: Daft Punk's Discovery is MUCH better. This album never gets old and sounds fresh no matter how many times you play it. Everyone interested in electronic music will remember that album in the years to come. -_- Also Daft Punk's Discovery is NOT tacky. A lot of electronic music producers tried to replicate DP sound but nobody came close. Anyone that knows something about electronic music also knows that Daft Punk made some quality music and they are an influential band. I bet that Rustie would sell his soul to make music half as good as Daft Punk. ^_^ Of course Daft Punk will remain legends and Rustie will remain in obscurity.
