#1307 Pond (Germany) - Transponder

Spotify recommended this, probably on accident, confusing it for one of 8 other bands named Pond.

It's more classically-inclined electronica without any particular soul, sounding very well crafted, sounding written on fucking paper first. Fuckthat. It's not helped by the clumsily executed "Twin Towers Tragedy" nor the (jesus) electronic version of select Pictures at an Exhibition segments.

This is what happens when you try to make music something it's not. Electronic music is not classical music. It is not prog rock.

This is a calculated, clumsy, perfectly fine, totally empty album.

Just when I thought I could trust you, Spotify 2/5
