Woman is just okay . I ' m not too big a fan of its production overall , not that it ' s bad there ' s just a good amount of decisions I don ' t agree with , especially the more phaseychorusy sounding synths and the buzzyness they have which sounds like it results from underprocessing and the heavy thick reverb on vocals . That , and the sound recycling they did on this is a bit obvious and lazier than what they ' ve done before . The same snapping style is on tracks like Safe And Sound , Alakazam , and Stop iirc but it just feels rehashed . Compare this to something like how they used the same Devo siren on Genesis and Stress , they serve completely different functions despite being the same source sound , it sounds new and fresh because of that . Songwriting is worse it reminds me of a watered down AVD , and track structure just really missed the mark this time around . 20072008 they were masters at tension and release , and AVD still had it a good amount , but man they don ' t have it on this record . Tracks like Alakazam and Heavy Metal have the worst structure of any of the songs they ' ve ever put out imo . There is some good to this record though , Safe Sound is pretty godlike and Randy is nice once it gets going . One thing I really like is that you can hear a lot of their past and influence in this record . Pleasure and the choir on Stop remind me a LOT of Larry Levan ' s Stand On The Word , which was the biggest inspiration for D . A . N . C . E . The vocal style on Stop reminds me a lot of Gaspard ' s singing on Justice ' s early track Sure You Will . There ' s Cross esque hi hats and the fat bass on couple tracks . The philosophy for melody and synth timbres was heavily taken from AVD . The drums remind me of AVD and their early remixes . uZoleol pointed out me that their remix of She Wants To Move and Safe Sound use very similar drums . Overall I think it ' s a nice record but their weakest effort to date .
