Negative Positive
Title: Annoying
Review: Gantz Graf is mostly a misstep for an otherwise excellent band. The first two tracks, especially the title track, are annoying drill and glitch messes, basically incoherent and pointless. Looking back, I realize that it was this release that put me off Autechre for about a decade, thinking they'd finally gone off the deep end. Luckily, I heard good things about Oversteps and am now back-filling my collection with all the intervening albums. Still, this is really bad, although the final track partially redeems the release with an amazing buildup of speed and intensity. Skip it unless you're a completist.
