I didn't infer that the band knew it was average material. Kalopsia did. I simply agreed that this is likely filler material. Hence the "Them knowing that it isn't gonna be well received isn't exactly enough justification for putting out average material imo. Bands put out filler all the time. I simply don't think this is on the better end of the filler spectrum.
Polyphia The Most Hated 2. Review by ramon. Review Summary: Discount noodles. It is difficult to be completely opposed to Polyphia's current rhetoric: melodic, technical fretboard aerobics over a modern timbre is a formula for success and it isn't hard to see why.
People love the spectacle of unattainable skill on full display but more than that, people love feeling comfy. It should be of little surprise that this is the hole Polyphia finds themselves in with The Most Hated as the band has been on a smooth trajectory towards blatant pandering for a long time now. Even if their quest to the Land of Progressive Stardom is one laden with all the trappings of a hearty, jazz-infused prog troupe narrative, it would seem the forces of conformity have proven a little too impenetrable for our heroes to stay the path.
Polyphia's latest venture might hold the same addictive nature as your favourite brand of carbohydrate soup but at the end of the day, there isn't much sustenance to be found in these discount noodles.
I think there is good reason for the decent amount of acclaim the band received with their throwback effort, Muse. That release was riding off of the sound of an era that had and continues to age well. This new EP is pulling inspiration from a style that is yet to prove its worth. The booming s, rapid-fire hats and completely egregious overuse of stale trap synths and horns all feel tacked on. The song and by extension, the whole EP is playing on our love of familiarity but in the same way Powerpoint 's design and structure aren't suited for extended use in a current world, Polyphia's persistent trap leanings already feel half-way dated and archaic.
Even so, the point still stands; this EP feels shockingly comfortable in its own skin. The melodic progressions are obnoxious yet easily remembered. Scott and Tim's choice phrasing style is persistently flashy. The air of cocky confidence established in "Loud" doesn't ever die out over the rest of the EP's runtime.
From the sharp arpeggios over "40oz"'s serrated basslines to the groovier-than-thou slides on "Crosty", every second of The Most Hated feels determined to live up to the title. Polyphia do not care what you think. And yet, they do. They really, really do. Here lies a band who seemingly brags about their self-confidence through their technical talents but lacks or maybe even ignores the introspection required to see that The Most Hated is the most middling and uninspired release they have yet put out.
There is most certainly fun to be had here. The level of self-indulgence showcased on some of these tracks is just about imprudent enough to warrant a few laughs out of anyone looking for more than just baseline wanking. The band's see; The guitarist's instrumental prowess is in top form with every riff and hook being just as surgically precise as the electronic instrumentation underpinning every song.
