from the vocal chops to the generic beats & atmospheric loops, sounds like it was generated via an AI plug-in on FLStudio

How come a record store can't get decent loudspeakers well set up?

My theory is that the BoC boys wanted to go to Inferno after their death but, being too well-bread to commit anything unlawful, they chose to release a dull album, which God would blame them for by sending'em to Hell.

Marlowe opin is always high horse and worth less than a gen z redditor... but yeah man its a little too clean and generic. The beat work itself is better than the great Marlowe proclaims tho.
Only track i want to keep listening to is Age Of Capricorn

Listening again now after 2 days of forbearing.
Sounds like an old BoC albom not listened to for years, like TCH or TH.

Picked up the cassette. A third of this is the absolute best work they've ever done, an EP's worth that tops their entire catalog.
What's left might be their best in the last 20 years, and a couple of tracks I wouldn't have known were them if it didn't say so on the tin.
It feels like an explosion of pure confidence and some of the finest producing I've heard on any record.

Fine production but lack of good melodies and beats.
Who cares about fine production for a band we loved even with the dirty sound of old cassettes?

"Fine production but lack of good melodies and beats."
I completely agree with this. The vocal stuff is neat but it gets old.
The best drum bit is on the word becomes flesh from 1:47 to 2:02. I rewound that bit maybe 30 times. Shame they drop out the mechanical sounds for the rest of the track, im just not too interested in embryo dialogue after a couple of listens. Ill revisit it on acid or something someday.

That 15s part in "The Word Becomes Flesh" is very nice thanks to its syncopated rhythm and richness in the counterpoint. (Two elements lacking almost everywhere else.)

Also you're right that the mechanical texture of the sounds is super, reminding me of the best Autechre (Chiastic Slide for instance).

Was curious to see what zilty thinks and I’m not disappointed.
From my side, the day it came out I watched the sun come up and it was love at first listen.
Couldn’t be more chuffed about its existence.

I keep thinking about all the people that died without hearing this. I then think about the people that died before BOC even started. I think we need to reset the Universe so everyone ever can listen to the new BOC album, the main virtue of which appears to be that it's "well produced".

i quite like it second disc is a lot more interesting, far more fleshed out compositions that go in unexpected directions also some of it is pretty unnerving (cool), i really like "all reason departs" it's holding the whole album together imo
