6/10
why do you guys hate me so much?

i kid

it actually took me a long time to get into Minutemen....and even now i'm not their biggest fan...just have oodles of respect...and i just watched a documentary on them it was actually very sad

LOVED the music, not sure about the lyrics and/or the voice, though. It would make a fantastic instrumental. The music's got a very cinematographic feel to it.

I'm sorry but I couldn't even get through that. It's just not my style, I didn't like the vocals and the background instrumentals irritated me. 2/10

I liked the beat well enough but wasn't crazy for the vocals. Intentional or not, I thought they were pretty overwhelmed and dragged too much. It almost works, though. 5/10

It's my favourite of 2009, an amazing album. Try listening to it more, maybe it'll grow on you, I had to listen to it a few times before it really clicked.

^^ Love nearly everything about it, I'm an Aphex Twin fan(new fan though), and this is now one of my favourite songs by him. 1:36 is amazing. 10/10
