End this "funeral of sadness' I'll be a "meloncholy sniper

I bought this album the same day as I bought Radiohead "amnesiac". Originally I was reluctant to buy this album due to poor reiews in Rolling Stone, but I went ahead and splurged anyway. When I listened to the albums I was surprised to let down by radiohead and so uplifted by Air. In a way 10,000 Hz is Air's "Kid A", a very experimental fare that adds a whole new demension to the band. It is "10,000 Hz" that solidifies Air as one of my favorite bands ever. Furthermore, it is this album not "Moon safari" that lets the listener see the deeper personal side of Air. With songs of robo-sex, love, America, and radios, "10,000 Hz" is a darkly ironic comic album that offers the listener a ride down the autobahn of love. It's like the purverse cousin of Daft Punk's excellent "Discovery" which has also been criticized but both albums need to be listened to with a sense of humor in order to have a rewarding listen. "moon safari" was pure nostalgia "10,000" is a true work of art.
