Reviews & Discussion
Experimental pop as only Lali Puna can do it. SCARY WORLD THEORY eases out of the gate with "Nin-Com-Pop," which easily traverses the line between bucolic IDM and pop. "Middle Curse" starts with some glitch leanings, but quickly falls into line under Valerie Trebeljahr's understated vocals. The album as a whole is so quiet that you could almost forget it's on, but the gentle beauty of tracks like "Contratempo" insinuate themselves swiftly. For those who need more, "50 Faces Of" puts the percussion on a little heavier, and “Lowdown” goes full-on dancefloor. “Come On Home” pours on some moody breaks, and the brief final track, “Satur-Nine,” closes the album on a clarion note. Not scary in the least, if you ask me.
