The post-performance/pure-production thing that's been hitting rock hit hip-hop too. Cities Aviv staggers through all manner of samples, loops, noises, distortions, themes, modes, rapping here and there, disappearing from time to time, everything skittering and splintering, a scattershot cactus of ideas and objections. It's inventive, better than boring, but all over the place, a collage of fragments of fragments, never coalescing into anything cohesive or compelling, never quite strange enough to be staggeringly daring.
That's better than not, but it never quite _gets there_ 3.5/5
