Re: Royksopp's New Album - Senior (Sept. 13th)
 

I don't see Senior listed for U.S. release. :( It isn't on US iTunes, it isn't showing up at amazon music or amazon mp3 downloads. What gives?

Also, new song up for streaming. The Fear is its title. http://royksopp.com/blog/news

It is found above the streaming player for The Drug. You can listen to the whole album on September 6th, too.

I can't say I ever really loved any of Royksopp's albums, they have several singles which I think are oustanding, but there are always a handful of songs I usually skip. (You can hear senior in its entirety here:http://hypem.com/search/royksopp )

So far I'm not really digging it. It seems they're at their best w/collaborations (Kings of Convenience, Robyn, Karin Drier Andersson). With Senior, all the songs sound like background music to me, not a lot of dynamics going on with any of them, so the album never really evolves. Just my opinion.

My fav Royksopp tracks though:

I think Melody A.M. is a pretty good album. I'd probably give it 4 out of 5 stars. The two that released after that I don't really like. Senior is my second favorite album from them, but it isn't too good. It is solid. Better than Junior and The Understanding for me. I wanted to buy it on iTunes, but it isn't on iTunes U.S., and I hear they had some record label troubles recently; probably why it isn't in U.S. stores (walk-in and online).
