This is very weird music. I don't hate it, but it does need some kind of mindset to keep listening. Most song are also a little bit too long. 3m
It's a bit like watching a very long, drawn-out train wreck. It certainly does not lack originality or variation, if anything it should have stayed more consistent within many of the songs. When it comes to the vocals, they're not great, and kind of cringey in how theatrical they often sound. The lyrics are also straight nonsense for like the vast majority of what they're saying. 3/10
Ambitious, aural chaos with absolutely no interest in making things easy for the listener. A very challenging listen. I suspect you either get it and love it, or you simply don't. I found it exhausting and infuriating. I've heard worse, though. Perhaps I'm just an uncultured swine.
