The productions are as nuanced and judiciously tricked out as they are on the previous album, adjusted to enhance all the agitation and grief, yet it's all ear candy -- spiraling synthesizers, vaguely psychedelic flourishes, and bumping drums galore. Tyler, the Creator's sixth album IGOR, is impressionistic and emotionally charged, the result of an auteur refining his style and baring more of his soul than ever before.IGOR hits its stride when it embraces heavier, more menacing instrumentals, particularly on 'NEW MAGIC WAND,' which features a beat change that ranks as one of the best of the decade. Take "New Magic Wand," where he sounds hollowed out by not having his lover completely to himself, then pitches up the vocals to accentuate a lunatic fantasy: "Your other one evaporate, we celebrate.

The mid range isn’t really projected from the mix but I don’t think this is the vinyl just a production choice. The sound and the visuals were immediately captivating so listened to a few more tracks, and before long I was hooked. Tyler, the Creator’s sixth album is impressionistic and emotionally charged, the result of an auteur refining his style and baring more of his soul than ever before.

stars out of 5 -- "IGOR immediately confronts us with the pulse-quickening opener ‘Igor’s Theme’ as a powerful wall of synths and a determined, clattering beat combine with an unexpected Lil Uzi Vert croon to grasp our attention from the off. Speaking of reliance, Tyler delegates (and deforms) more of the vocal load here than he did on Flower Boy. At the start of the album you have happy sounding songs such as Earfquake and I Think, but as the situation deteriorates the songs become less happy, and IGOR becomes more possessive and desperate, culminating in a break up on 'What's Good?

Tyler The Creator’s Igor is his fifth album and is a record about love and love lost, but Tyler conveys it as much through the warm synths and ‘70s soul drums as he does words. Whether it's an Audio-Technica AT-LP60, a Fluance RT85 or a Technics SL-1200, the sound is distorted and has noticeable wow and flutter that is not supposed to be there (I know some songs are supposed to have it, however my copy has wow and flutter on songs where it should not be present).I was aware of a few of his earlier tracks, and knew he was a talented artist, but a lot of his older content wasn't really for me (although it certainly would have been for the teenage me!

I love when an album works well as a body of work rather than a collection of singles, and IGOR epitomises that approach to albums.Igor’s Theme’ has a great bassline that demands to be played at deafening volumes and ‘Earfquake’ is filled with heartache and pathos. Solange and Jessy Wilson, plus Lil Uzi Vert and Kanye West, among others, often sound like their butterflies are as acute as Tyler's own. He responded to what was missing with antagonism, album after album, until 2017 when he looked back at his life with a sunny lens and twinge of nostalgia to deliver his best work, Flower Boy.
