The Protomen: Here Comes the Arm
Might be fatigue and/or work-induced stress implosion influencing this bold statement, but I am presently inclined to call Act II my favorite album. There's not a note out of place on this thing, but perhaps more significant is that it so eagerly embraces the one trait most endearing to me in music (and in other media, but most especially in music): treating with deathly seriousness things which conceptually could and probably should be very silly indeed (such as, in this case, using Megaman as a forum in which to ruminate about the potential for individual action to effect change in a climate of overwhelming fear).
