The production is interesting but the songs themselves are lacking.

Bold artistic choices that mostly work. Rewarding for patient listeners.

Probably the most perfectly sequenced album I've ever heard. Each track sets up the next one beautifully and the climax hits like a freight train. The fact that they pulled this off is honestly kind of miraculous.

I've listened to this front to back more times than I can count and it never loses its magic. The production is meticulous without ever feeling sterile, and every track contributes something essential to the whole. One of those albums that genuinely changed my taste in music.

Just when you think you've heard it all, an album like this comes along.
