I'm not here to debate the first 3 albums because that's a subject I've never heard 2 people agree on. What we can agree on is that The Pariah... album was kinda weird, even by dredg standards, and had very few memorable songs. What we should have been able to tell from the title is that dredg was aiming to be just that, a pariah. The new album, Chuckles and Mr. Squeezy, is garbage, to put it simply. It's like in the 80's when new wave bands were taking over and respectable rockers were trying to add electronics to their sound and it was just complete failure for so many artists. Thanks to allowing history to repeat itself with bands like MGMT we are stuck in another electronic music age and dredg wants to take their shot at it. It's really terrible. Go ahead, listen for yourself music.aol.com/new-releases-full-cds/#/12 (just keep scrolling to the right through the albums until you see the cover, the only thing somewhat interesting about this record), but I warned you. I listened to it, stopped, did something else, and even came back to it and forced every horrendous song through my poor little ears (they're actually kind of over sized now that i think about it) just hoping for one good song. No. Just... no.
