Their most recent album really shows this. Many long term fans don't dig it as much as prior works, but I think it is amongst the best, if not the best, post spawn album. The beats are far more melodic and complex than ever before. I have always thought prior albums to possess at least a few filler songs, but not here. Slug has taken a step up in his story telling style of rapping, producing maybe not what I would consider the greatest album in the history of Atmosphere, but the most solid without a doubt.
(Most recent being when life hands you lemons btw)

It annoys me that people don't like this album. But I really think that it's mostly just a victim of it's popularity. They're technically an undergound hip-hop group, and underground hip-hop fans are fickle.
