Ugh...
by Faronicus Mankato, MN
Reviewed on September 14th, 2003
Air just keeps going downhill. "Premiers Symptomes" was excellent. "Moon Safari", despite the dumb title, had its excellent moments. But I should've seen it coming with the tracks "Sexy Boy" and "Remember", two horrible, horrible euro-pop clunkers. The cover of the album "10,000 Hz" pretty much explains the content: interesting at first, kind of silly, then you realize what it is...poor, overbearing art. Someone explain to me why "Radio #1" is so darn good? By the time I got to "People in the City" I was thoroughly shocked. Air's saving grace is its good background melodies. As for vocals and effects, I don't know what the fudge Dunckel and Godin were thinking. What happened to the mellow, 70's feel of "Symptomes"? What about the airy tracks of "Safari" and "The Virgin Suicides"? I know that Air are "artists", and they must "evolve", but for Christ's sake! Make music for humans, not computers.
