His previous album's excellence made it seem like Daedelus was working at his peak but amazingly he not only equals that album but surpasses it, creating his most satisfying album since his debut.
-
The main problem haunting Denies The Day's Demise is the same one that holds back several past releases from Daedelus. While the release is cohesive and fairly entertaining, it could have used a bit more editing in terms of overall running length.
-
Despite the extremely strong sonic points, most of the album falls short in the songwriting department.
-
The disc is a dense, cerebral, sweated-over work of art.
-
MojoNever less than inventive. [Jul 2006, p.110]
-
The entire album comes across as a pleasingly intimate expression, without once seeming cloying or precocious.
-
Daedelus does with electronic and Latin music here what he and others have already done with experimental hip-hop: boiling genre to an essence and re-imagining it with novel or illuminating instrumentation.
-
As something along the lines of throwing an old Pink Panther soundtrack in a blender with a copy of Reason 3, every track on Denies The Day is a scene from a different film you can't quite remember seeing.
-
UrbDaedelus weaves his sounds into an intricate sonic tapestry that pleases the ears while stimulating the brain. [Jun 2006, p.110]
