WZRD – Album Snippets and Preview
I woke up this morning to a message from Arjun saying that WZRD decided to release snippets of their album for the world to preview. I jumped out of bed almost immediately and clicked play. I listened a few times through, and then a few more times. I’ve come to the unfulfilling conclusion that I can’t pre-judge the album before I hear the whole thing, but I can guess what my overall rating out of 10 will be. To do this, I gave each song a (prejudiced) 5-star rating, and then calculated what that would come out to out of a full 10 stars. I end up with a pre-rating of 8.1. To be honest, I think I’m giving this album extra padding in this pre-rating. I don’t think it’s going to live up to an 8.1 just after hearing the snippets. I’m going to hope that it can, but for now it’s sounding a little too out there, and too far from Kid Cudi’s original style, for me to really fall for it. What do you guys think?
Hear two full songs (Brake and Teleport 2 Me) and see the full tracklisting here.
