I'll be honest - the premiere tracks I heard on the new JC album didn't move me, and I've been a huge fan of his for decades. I'll have to check the whole record, but I heard 2-3 tracks off this one and didn't get much at all out of them.
Same here, i feel like the less is more approach works for his style. When I listen to the soundtrack for "They Live" or "Escape from New York" and even the first lost themes album they all have a mood that the music brings out. Not feeling it with this release, but who knows, I may change my mind down the road.
