Compared to his last album, ‘Kiwanuka’ is a little more stripped back, a little more intimate and very fine-tuned. Michael continues to raise the bar with every release he puts out.

Beck sought fit to dip his toes into dream pop and electropop on his latest effort. As he has a limited sense of direction as most of the songs have not only the same lackadaisical format and structure, they include some of Beck’s most tiresome flows and songwriting to date. It sounds like a bad Slowdive cover, but no amount of reverb can save Beck from this misguided attempt of an album.

This album is a good reason why The Cinematic Orchestra is named “The Cinematic Orchestra”.
Best Track: All of the tracks with features on them
Worst Track: maybe “The Workers of Art”
The Cinematic Orchestra \\ To Believe \\ Domino \\ 2019
Nu Jazz, Art Pop, Downtempo
Rating: A-

It’s hard to believe this album was made by the same guy that was behind ‘Endtroducing.....’ This 90-minute record seems to cram all the quality songs in the second half of the album; meaning the listener has to sit through roughly 40 minutes of songs that show DJ Shadow is punching below his weight. I avoid the “this isn’t another X” argument; however, this argument is valid: ‘Our Pathetic Age’ doesn’t continue the criterion that ‘Endtroducing.....’ set.
