A person would have to be high on drugs to even listen to this so-called "music".
Absolutely Terrible!!

"'Philophobia,' Arab Strap's second record, still fills me with wonder every time -- an honest-to-goodness gut-level feeling of wide-eyed wonder. Few records ever do this, and about the ones that do I always like to say that the band must've been 'drinking some magic tea' when they recorded it, because it reaches a level of poignancy, relevance and, well, art, far beyond the usual fare served up by normal human beings. Arab Strap, of course, are normal human beings, and since the days of 'Philophobia' they've been drinking the magic tea sparingly, it seems. Thier latest album, 'the Red Thread' (Turbulence is the second single from the album), is the band's most themeatically uncohesive and difficult. There are flashes of brilliance, and Turbulence is one of them -- a sinister New Order-meets-the Cure barn-burner. What's dissappointing is that the mixes on the single don't play out the song's great strengths, they don't reveal anything new. They don't, as I believe remixes ought, rework the original idea and play out a different aspect of the theme, but rather they simply retool the sound of it in a way that could have been done by a machine and that will appeal to DJs and your average slog on the dance floor. Perhaps this is the point, and if so, great; but if you're looking for another version of Turbulence, forget it, there's only one, and it's on 'the Red Thread.' The Turbulence mixes is quite ordinary tea, with two lumps to boot."
