To whoever says they found the album disappointing:
It doesn't have a groundbreaking new style, but I think with this album he put what was possible with this existing tuss-y anal style to a new extreme.
I am once again completely blown away by this man's compositional skills, the amount of emotions he manages to create with some simple baselines, the beats, those eerie vocals.
He's said in several interviews that this album was just to close it off and release the tracks people wanted to have released for years and he put a few more tracks on top that matched the style.
The album is mindblowing just through the quality and precision we'd all expect from Richard. I guess after so many years the expectations are so high it's almost impossible to meet them, but he definitely met mine. Syro is exactly what I expected, nothing more, but also not one fucking bit less.
If you were hoping for something less predictable, just wait, I'm pretty sure Richard is gonna release something to your liking sooner or later.
Lord Faphex is back in the game!
