Senior makes a strong claim to be 2010's best electronic album. It's a record to lie back and drown in.
-
While some of the tracks sound like rough sketches that were simply given a bit more shading, most of Senior captivates as a full-length experience.
-
It can't be said that Senior fails to meet its modest wallpaper-ish aims, yet it hardly represents the best Royksopp has to offer.

Oct 27, 2010Maybe it's just its drastic contrast with the chirpy and pop-friendly Junior that makes Senior seem so dreary, but even out of context, Royksopp's latest seems like a poor, thoroughly underdeveloped and, dare I say it, unfinished effort.
