Sunik Kim: For an album positioned as a response to \u201Ca persistent excess of \u2018seriousness\u2019 in contemporary electronic music,\u201D ALOL is actually shockingly unfunny. In fact, it\u2019s more deeply entrenched in and emblematic of the eye-rolling bullshit of the experimental music world than it would care to admit. At the end of the day, this is, ironically, a fairly self-serious and\u2014worst of all\u2014tedious album, a slog of a listen, a straightforward gimmick shrouded in the (serious!) art world language of \u201Csonic assemblages\u201D and \u201Cspatial interventions\u201D (press copy\u2019s words), one just barely carried by a few flashes of sonic wizardry (\u201CSkip The Line\u201D is a standout, Autechre\u2019s \u201CV-PROC\u201D with\u2014you guessed it!\u2014manipulated laugh tracks instead of fractured drums). I feel nothing, I think nothing\u2014there are countless \u2018serious\u2019 experimental works that are exponentially funnier, more cutting and exciting than this. In fact, a 40-minute album composed of straight, unprocessed laughter would come much closer to fulfilling the promise of this project.
