FKA Twigs: M3LL155X EP

5.8/10

I'll start off with that I've never found FKA Twigs formula of electronic and R&B mixing to be quite that intriguing.  Great singles like Lights On are the few that are able to get to me because they add a real sensuality to the intimate electronics that can bring you in side of it instead of keeping you at remove of knowing something is beautiful, but not really being all that interested.  There are no such moments here.  Instead all reason for any interest come at the moments that offer the weirdest electronic alteration.  That even can only keep one song,  Glass & Patron, Thoroughly interesting.  The end effect is something almost robotic.  Constantly giving an imitation of sexuality and intimacy, but always feeling phony at its inability to make it emotional.
