    5.0 out of 5 stars I really like this album
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 September 2016

    I really like this album. There is an edge to it throughout - it always teeters on the edge of anarchy. It seems like at any point his voice or guitar will let loose and lose control but it never quite does. For me that is what makes this album so original and different from a lot of other guitar music around at the moment and enjoyable to listen to.

    I like the first Darwin Dees album...in parts. This second album is a definate progression taking a similar formula and adding a stronger sound, production and confidence. For me there is less filler and when listening you have more focus on the album than individual songs. Don't expect a new style or any drastic changes but i think most who liked the first album will love this.

    Like others it took me a few listens to really 'get' it, but once I did I was hooked. One of very few albums that I enjoy going back to time and again without it losing its appeal. Also it brings happy holiday memories flooding back.. a rather belated review for a genius musician & lyricist..

    3.0 out of 5 stars Something misssing
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 February 2013
    I have to say I struggled to like this album but got there in the end. There was something definitely missing though. Darwin has stated that for the first album he put various limitations on himself, using the same guitar tone and same production techniques throughout. He did this to show how strong of a songwriter he is and for me it worked beautifully. If the sound of his first album was a meal I could literally eat it and never get full. The lyrics were also instantly accessible and memorable. I believe there was some serendipity involved in finding this sound due to these limitations. However on this new album Deez has changed his production approach which for me is where I struggled to get on board. You can definitely tell the production has stepped up a notch. It features some very interesting sounds. What stood out for me production wise were the tracks 'Free' and the opener '(800) human'.

    I feel there's something missing from the vocals. He definitely still puts a lot of heart into what he's singing on this album but the seamless connection between the instrumentation and the lyrics is not as apparent as it was in the first. I have to attribute this to the production style. I also felt that the guitar solos, as good as they are, sound out of place and is some what of an uncomfortable departure from the style of the Deez that I've come to know. It just doesn't fit in with the character of some of the songs like in 'You Can't Be My Girl', to me it just doesn't resonate with the lyrics and message of the song from how I understood it. I know for myself and possibly for a lot other people I never went to Deez for cool sounding guitar solos which millions of people can do and probably do better. I went to Darwin Deez for strong lyrics coupled with catchy infectious guitar riffs which few can do.

    The energy on this album has been dialled down a notch in comparison to the first which is a shame. Despite this I still enjoyed a lot of it. 'Alice', 'Redshift' and 'All In The Wrist' have to be my top three songs of the album.

    It was always going to be hard to follow up from such a classic which was loved by so many. I'm still a Darwin Deez fan and hope I enjoy his next album more than this one.

    Taking what was brought to the first album, Darwin Deez builds upon it and delivers a fantastic 2nd cd which in my opinion surpasses the original, with more ideas and more intricate melodies. Red shift is now my favourite track by him, involving a gorgeous musical background to some heart wrenching lyrics.

    Quirky, electro-jangle-faff, for fans of intelligent and witty lyrics to clean well defined beats.

    Similar to the previous album, but with more breadth and better production.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning follow up album
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 February 2013
    Warning - this album requires an investment from the listener. On first listen, you may be unsure (certainly the initial commentator below seems to have struggled), but on second, third and following listens this record reveals itself to be a fantastically assured, confident and thrilling album.

    It seems Darwin himself, with the knowing album title, anticipated and acknowledged that this sophomore album would require a more imaginative ear. However, anyone who loved, or even just liked, the debut will find a lot to like and to love in this follow up.

    Like the debut the lyrics are fairly dark and melancholic but are extremely clever, there's some incredibly skilful wordplay on show - I truly feel he's one of the best lyricists in Pop. The production is satisfyingly fuller, there's a wider palate of sonic and, for sure, some of the arrangements require and demand the full attention of the ear. Ultimately, however, this is still a Darwin Deez album - and, for me, it his deepest, most personal and innovatively inspiring record to date. I am, and will continue to be, blown away by it. Superb.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Weiterentwicklung - und sich treu geblieben
    Reviewed in Germany on 13 February 2013
    Verified Purchase
    Das Debütalbum war außergewöhnlich und atemberaubend, aber ganz ehrlich: die zehn Titel waren auch ohne allzu viel Entwicklungspotenzial: Riffing mit ungewöhnlicher Gitarrenstimmung, scheinbar amateurhafte Drum-Loops, Stimme mit Wiedererkennungswert, philosophisch angehauchte Texte. Alles super, aber was sollte noch kommen? Nochmal zehn Songs nach gleichem Strickmuster, vielleicht glattgebügelt von irgendeinem angesagten Produzenten?

    Und dann kommt dieser Knaller. Darwin Deez hat sich weiterentwickelt, und das in jeder Hinsicht. Immer noch tolle Gitarrenriffs, aber sie sind nur Ausgangspunkt für komplexe Songs mit vielschichtigen Arrangements. Nach reiner Gitarrenmusik wie auf dem ersten Album wird hier eine neue kompositorische Stufe erreicht. Und auch auch die Popsong-Fraktion wird bedient ("You can't be my girl"). Die Sounds sind erste Sahne ("Redshift"!), und Darwin bietet sogar hier und da richtig amtliche Gitarrensolo-Schnipsel.

    Congratulation. Ein tolles zweites Album. Leider nichts für Stagnateur-Liebhaber und Immer-dasselbe-Möger.

    3.0 out of 5 stars A bit of a sophomore slump
    Reviewed in the United States on 11 March 2013

    I LOVED the first self-titled Darwin Deez album. In fact it was one of my favorite records of 2010. Unfortunately this new one fell a bit short. The songs are still charming and quirky but it's missing some of the kind of inexplicable addictive qualities found in the first record. Something about those hooks on the first album really just dug in and never let go. The closest thing we get on this album is Redshift, which is definitely an excellent song.

    If you haven't heard either Darwin Deez album, DEFINITELY buy the self-titled album from 2010 and if you like it, check this one out.
