The sardine tin hodgepodge of tracks like “Americans” and “Problem Areas” are a total counterpoint to the 12-min Juno drones that typified his early work.

Repeat listens reveal a remarkable ability to conjure real substance out of the pastiche… On album centerpiece “Along,” a strategic peppering of FM synth pads and cuckoo clock stabs to an otherwise unhurried and uneventful bassline transforms it with a terrible urgency. “Still Life” is incredibly heavy, and the gigantic choruses that come crashing through the dainty passages of sample collage are brutal and suffocating, but oddly gratifying. Other highlights include “Zebra,” “Cryo” and hopeful closing track “Chrome Country.” Double vinyl pressing with download code, recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edouble vinyl pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003egatefold sleeve \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ealbum design by Robert Beatty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ecover painting by Georges Schwizgebel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edigital download included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Warp Records 2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003ereviewed by carparts, bottles \u0026amp; cutlery 07\/2018\u003c\/h6\u003e","brand":"Oneohtrix Point Never","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl 2LP","offer_id":12116405911672,"sku":"lp-9797","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/products\/oneohtrixpointnever-rplus.jpg?v=1762275316","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/products\/oneohtrix-point-never-r-plus-seven-vinyl-2lp","provider":"turntablelab.mom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
