So, I went back to this album and like a lot of you have said it starts off really well. The first four tracks sound great even though I still find Aesop rather droney, the production more than makes up for it and keeps the tracks lively.
He seems to be getting better at writing hooks as well, I was nodding along to most on the earlier portion of the album.
However, it runs out of steam after the Crows 1 & 2 in my opinion with the song writing getting a little tepid and losing the momentum the earlier songs had kicked up. Still on the whole though, not too bad at all. I'll give it a 7 verging on an 8.
