Album Review: Raw Data Feel by Everything Everything
Fantastic, Based on 3 Critics
Based on rating 4.5
Turning to AI for a new lyrical perspective, the band’s sixth album brings together phrases from Beowulf, 4chan, the teachings of Confucius and the complete terms and conditions of LinkedIn Technology is playing an ever-greater role in the production of pop music. That may be an obvious statement, but in an age of over-exposure to the media we have at our disposal, bands are finding increasingly imaginative ways to harness its power and even its humanity. While writing their sixth album, Everything Everything turned to AI for a new lyrical perspective, using the restrictive conditions of recent lockdowns to their advantage.

For over a decade, the quartet have been behind some of the most viscerally exciting hybrid genre releases of recent memory, and you need only glance briefly at their work to recognise it. Man Alive. Arc. Get to Heaven. A Fever Dream. Re-Animator. Each album is stylistically and thematically ….
Opinion: Excellent
The meeting of man and machine has increasingly been a theme of Everything Everything's eccentric, danceable art-rock. The societal effects of multimedia overload, and its potential dystopian consequences, has often added a serious tone to the Manchester-based quartet's surreal sense of adventure. Their sixth album, Raw Data Feel, takes it further.
