Like the album that precedes it, SNWMLTR is filled with velvety synths and crisp beats and song titles that eschew vowels. "Bld Drft" is more insistent than anything we've heard from RXRY: a patient chord progression gets hassled by a pushy bassline and a clapping woodblock. In many ways, it's the most structured thing we've heard from the project. "Sbr Vokbulry" is a relatively large lurch forward because it's the first (and only) track by RXRY to feature vocals. Granted, "vocals" should be used very lightly: the voice is so highly processed that it's indistinguishable from the various blips and bleeps that flit around the song. SNWMLTR is a welcome addition to the strange body of work that RXRY has built this year.
