On Recess, Skrillex's much anticipated debut album, electronic virtuoso Sonny Moore conveys what it means to be human. His sonic tidal waves of heavily distorted synth, which fluctuate up and down hypnotically, explore the vastness of human emotion. All wars, human achievements, political movements, social injustices, scientific advancements, and ideological revolutions are captured in the album's eleven movements. This is art at its most transcendent and realized--A shining monument for contemporary music, and a beacon of hope for a world undeserving of such godlike genius. |
