This was a coming-of-age album for the artist, who collaborated with RZA of Wu Tang, on one of the tracks of the decade - "Take A Fall For Me" - about unrequited love, that packs the biggest punch, as does "Digital Lion" - another laser shredding track that is out of this macrocosm, an outlier of suspense.
This sophomore album from James Blake - I saw it on tour when he came to Taipei - was a mix of angular trajectories, piercing shreds and harsh realities. To absorb it up at Legacy in Huashan Arts Park feels like a yesterday ago and now I got the new me.
Still, though I got the new me, the old me was still grooving and getting pumped full of electrolytes when I saw this live. Holy ghost. Fucking pup.
