    [A] satisfying compilation with its lugubrious and luxurious electronic introspection created by an artist once again near the height of his powers.

    Dead Son Rising is neither terrible nor extraordinary.

    Dead Son Rising feels watery and without a center; it reinforces Numan's legacy, rather than his potential.
