#2133 Nevermen - Nevermen

I want to like this. It's squirmy, dabbling in psychadelic swooning, meandering noises, bursts of hard guitars, and the occasional hip hop blast. But it just doesn't work. Musically it comes close, but those vocals are at odds with eachother, cooing, chiming singsonging, rapping, Nu-Metal rapping, Nu-Metal screaming, and on and on.

Nevermen seem to simultaneously want to be intellectual and experimental and indie and hard and intense and revolutionary. It's a tonal mess that comes across as trying way too hard too do way many things and doesn't end up pulling off any of them 2.5/5
