It\u2019s so generically average that it almost becomes remarkable in its self.  Worst still, I\u2019ve been forced to endure this abomination of music every-bastard-where I go \u2013 in the car to work, in work, on the TV, on the radio\u2026  It\u2019s inescapable, and it\u2019s making me want to tear the ears of the side of my head.<br \/>\nPharell\u2019s vocals are terribly boring, uninspired, and lazily delivered.  Every syllable is like nails on a fucking chalkboard.  Very few recordings exist where the lead vocalist doesn\u2019t commit to the recording.  Calling this \u2018phoned in\u2019 would be quite the compliment.<\/p>\n<p>As for the actual \u201cmusic\u201d\u2026 fuck sakes man\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The same chord progression loops endlessly, Nile\u2019s attempts and to his credit, succeeds to use his generic wah guitar to bore me to death, and empty blandness engulfs me to the extent that I can no longer physically breathe.<\/p>\n<p>As the track reaches its conclusion, Daft Punk \u201ccleverly\u201d introduce the patented vocoder bullshit over the top.  It\u2019s executed so poorly and is so unashamedly bad that I have never once managed to listen to the whole thing without putting my head in my hands.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d go as far as saying that no music in the last 10 years, be it amateur or professional, has made me want to pull my hair out as much as the new Paft Dunk shalbum.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, you wondering why I mention the album in the title, but only talk about one track?  Well that\u2019s because they\u2019re all the fucking same pish.  Same fucking chord progressions, same horrible writing, same sense of falling into a dark and empty room and smashing your head on the wall to relieve your monotony\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Zero out of ten.  Would not ever fucking listen to again, not even in a life or death situation.  Would not recommend, not even to the most throughly deaf moron.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[32],"class_list":["post-1135","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-reviews","tag-daft-punk"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1135","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1135"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1135\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2303,"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1135\/revisions\/2303"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1135"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1135"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bassdress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1135"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
