I struggle to say anything about this record. I find the spoken word bits cloying. I really enjoy Frownland for about 30 seconds. I find the record more interesting for its position in the rock lexicon than I do find it interesting in itself. I don't believe it changes song structures, my musical understanding of the Captain is that he writes basic song structures then subtracts a few bits (whilst always keeping an eye on the pulse). So, not far away from the commercial end of glitch. It depends on your stance on rhythm really. I don't really follow Boulez, I'm pretty sure texture is a sub-species of rhythm (fabrics = pulse, horizontal/ vertical). Actually, that's probably my general take on TMR - it's probably the best record to measure a person's musical epistemic.
