This is one of the worst albums I ever listened to in my life. I surely hope the submission of this album was a bad joke. It is (thank God) very short and full of Scooter style metalcore rave tracks. The lyrics are stupid (special mention "Fuckboi") and uninteresting. It also has schlager style tracks (f.e. "Hurrikan"). Maybe this is "fun" on a summer festival, but even then I would be annoyed after a track or two. A one star rating does not do this album justice.

You say "we need more energy", I turn on Electric Callboy. Great ridiculous add to an already wild assortment of music.

Not really my genre in a couple of respects. I didnt hate it, but it seemed pretty much just, well, techno... with some Teutonic growl-shouting.

I listen to a podcast where the host made his own theme song using AI and this is what it sounds like

When the screaming started I thought I might be out, but it wasn’t as rough as I often find that sort of singing. In fact a lot of the songs were pretty good. Fuckboi was great, and there are several others that I really liked. While still not my cup of tea it was tight and the runtime worked to its advantage.

There is something there with Tekkno but it's not quite all there. Metalcore mixed with Europop stylings doesn't seem like it should work, and it often doesn't, but every so often it seems to catch me and make me want more. Mindreader and Parasite are really good songs for example, but they're followed soon after by Hurrikan which might as well have been a collab with Cartoons or Vengaboys or any of those late 90s novelty acts, and there are other examples throughout where it's like they're working with Scooter and HP Baxxter is dropping bars over the top (We Got The Moves, Spaceman). Then the closing track Neon is a really good heavy rock ballad tune, not even metalcore. I dunno, I can see some of the appeal, but the exection isn't great (and the production is way too clean for metal), yet it has some bops and only lasts half an hour. Probably lands on the 2.9 side of a 3 for a 2/5.

electro heavy metal? seems like every songs starts interesting then falls off a cliff as soon as the vocals come in, the standout song is the one with guest vocals - FCKBOI and I actually listened to and enjoyed a few of that bands songs after this - 2

Just plain bad. Overloaded arrangements, bad production that sags under the weight of so many elements at once, and terrible lyrical content and focus. Metal is a genre ripe for fusion with how technical and layered it can be, but there has to be some artful consideration of HOW to layer in new elements without just throwing things at the wall and seeing what sticks. Also gives me flashbacks to the lolXDsoRandom! era of the early teens, which is impressive for an album made a decade later.

This is the two genres I hate most mashed together. You have some screamo metal that’s done over some club techno sounds and all of the songs are about things that were more popular 10 years ago. This was one of the worst albums on the new list. 0.7/10
