it's a great album as well, maybe better than FACE TAT, albeit far less accessible.

I do wonder though, as Frownland would say, what's your source for that comment? I think everyone knows the rules, and if they don't then they only have to go to the OP. Your review is hardly a ringing endorsement of the album you recced Qwertyy. You spend more time talking about DG and Beefheart. Did you like it? What's your end rating/impression? I'm not sure even after what you wrote.

i like the album, i'm not willing to assign it an arbritrary rating because i find it to be a polarizing album that i can't just stick a number on. same reason i wouldn't really stick a number on any of the (rather limited) experimental music i listen to. there's a lot to take in and my sentiments are different after each listen.
i mention death grips a lot because he's more well known as their drummer and feel that most people go into this expecting something similar. i feel that it is similar but with different influences made readily obvious, such as Beefheart and Zappa as mentioned. i hope that covers everything you wanted to know, but i want to clarify. i prefer smaller reviews because i believe it encourages conversation and asking questions. if everyone replied in highly structured lengthy reviews there might not be anything left to discuss. to each his own i suppose

And nobody has to do a long review. It's up to each person. I use the matrix as I find it an easier way to organise my thoughts rather than have to write a full review. But a few lines is fine; just make some sort of definitive conclusion at the end - I loved it, I hated it, I want to bury in in my garden and forget about it, I want to marry it etc.
