so it's leaked, anything else gotten it yet?
im about half way thru listening right now, and im not dissapointed. still has the same murkyness of his more recents releases, but much more acoustic. lots of piano, guitar, and just more organic sounds. it reminds me alot of drukqs in its tone and sense of space.
hooray, some new media that has me excited finally

I have to be honest, I have never really liked his music so I'm not expecting much from his new one.

I really hope this will not be the end of my love for the man. Chaos Theory was a bit boring.

Outstanding. It's easily his best since Supermodifed. Maybe it lacks overall consistency, but at least 5 of the tracks can rank in my non-existent top 10 Amon Tobin list.
Hell, this may even be his best album to date.

agreed, if a bit inconsistant, the last four tracks are outstanding, its great when you realize artists who have an extremely experimental style let their pop sensibility shine through.
always could be one of the top amon songs to date.

Chaos theory was boring unless you played the game. Its one of my favorite game soundtracks. It works so perfectly with the game, I couldn't imagine playing it without.
It was kind of a stupid plan to release it as an album.

I don't know what to think of it. Upon first listen it sounds both boring and amazing at the same time. Production-wise it's awesome, but musically....dunno. Probably needs a few more listens.

I just listened to the Bloodstone EP, Bloodstone is a bit aimless but Esther's is great and the third track which isnt on the album (i think) is probably the best one

im digging it so far, i will def buy it....i think the latter half is better but i think the rest will grow as it seems that there are plenty of subtle and scrumptious bits all over the place. i was very happy to hear that was was a lot of ny favorite stuff from his breezeblock set on there....very creative album imo

I don't know why you did either. I would almost ask you, but I wouldn't expect a relevant answer, so I won't. Let me give you this, though: if you read carefully, you'll see the answers are already here. In some form or another.

you won't need to download an album that sounds nothing like any of his other albums in that case, mainly because it's been recorded...yunno... in Foley rooms.
And actually... I might not be the best person to advise you to listen to Amon Tobin properly, because I don't actually think his albums sound very much like each other.

i disagree actually, just about everything he's done since supermodified has deffinately had a similar sound to it. its that kind of murky but pulsating mishmash of instruments that stays suprisingly intelligable in terms of different sounds.
tostoyed: if his current sound is that annoying to you, try checking out his earlier releases; id reccomend bricolage. everything's alot more forefront in the mix, and its noticably simpler than his recent work, but its still damn groovy.

okay i gave it a proper listen.
it's devastating mastering and conceptional wise, all that sample cutting is really good.
but it's a disaster as a amon tobin album. it just doesn't has this you know.... thing

So you're saying that two of his albums (OFOW and Chaos Theory) sound similar? And one of them was just a throw-away video game soundtrack. That's almost agreeing with me I guess.
And again, 'Foley Room' sounds completely different to anything he has done before because it was recorded differently and different source material.

well, i was grouping supermodified in with those, and considering he released like 5 million between all those (verbal, 4 ton mantis...)
i just think supermodified marked a change in his production style, and yes, i think foley room still has alot of that same sound. things can sound similar even if theyre recorded differently because in the end its still the same guy behind the keyboard.

It is certainly different, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. It is one of those albums which work better as a whole, with no real standout track.

Lots happens in those tracks, he seems to really put much effort into his music. Excellent, dense album. Surely on my best 2007 list already. "killer's vanilla" is a very addictive track.
