Head Automatica // Propaganda



Type
: Mix: 2 parts Dance, 1 part Punk-Rock, and a dash of Emo

Two long years after their freshman album, Head Automatica released their album Propaganda. I downloaded Decadence at the beginning of this summer, and it’s been a few months, before I finally came across Propaganda. I decided to make a review of this album so everyone can decide for themselves whether or not they would like to own this album for themselves.

In my opinion, if you only had enough money in the week to buy one album, don’t buy Propaganda. Instead, buy Decadence. However, if you have enough money to buy two albums a week, go ahead and buy both. This is because Decadence is by far a better album. If I was putting anything else up against Decadence, I would say it was an unfair battle; Decadence is one of my personal favorite albums. Maybe it’s not fair that I put so much expectation on Head Automatica to make an album that is just as perfect as their first, but I did - and they didn’t rise to the occasion.

Don’t get me wrong, this is a fabulous album. Nearly every song still hits my soul, just not EVERY song and not in the same way as their first. Like I said, if you want anything, get Decadence, then get Propaganda.
