OK I bought the album today. Have only listened to it once, but here are a few observations:

1. Basically, it's better than Tomboy but not as good as Person Pitch. I'm really starting to think he'll never come up with an album as good as Person Pitch again.
2. Pretty good mix of songs.
3. Three or four of the songs sounded a bit like highly electronicized/synthesized renditions of 70's disco songs.
4. One of the songs (#10 I think), I immediately recognized the sample from Debussy.

Now the complaint:

5. I'm starting to get a bit tired of the ambient/background electronic effects. Mr. Noah is the worst case of this. He overwhelms the song so much with the "background" effects it almost drowns out the vocals, and I find myself turning up the volume to try to hear the vocals/melody more, but then I immediately get annoyed because then the background stuff is waaay too loud. This kind of thing is my only gripe about Centipede Hz. He (and the rest of AnCo) need to lay off on that IMO, it's getting old.
