I have been able to endure the occasional electronica album, but this was something else. Forget "Wannabe." "Elektrobank" has to be the most obnoxious song ever created.

It consists of somebody saying "Who is dis doin' this synthetic type of alpha beta psychedelic funkin'?" so many times, that it broke me. I am not being too hard on myself, I think it would have broken most people. 

I'll be generous and say that I could perhaps see how this music might be mildly tolerable if it was played in a club setting. But it's 2020, so no chance of that happening.

RATING: 1/5
