I haven't played this album in a few months, but in essence this is a 9 out of 10 album in my book. I got into El-P on Smithereens.



My other go-to tracks are Up All Night, Run the Numbers, Drive, Dear Sirs...



Well, let me do it the other way. The only tracks I don't really dig are EMG, Habeas Corpses, and Flyentology (but the video is sick...)



I'm gonna have to re-listen to this one and come in and add more in depth discussion about the lyrics, which we all know are top notch. But we can really get into deciphering some of his cryptic wording if y'all want...

I used to be with you on this, but you really just gotta listen and let the boom bap take you over, especially after the 1:30 mark. It's a really addicting song once it connects.

It has such a great opening

"Heart of an altar boy molested in confession
Who plotted for 20 years then slit the throat of a reverend
And half of this thought is young vandal the system
Contraption of credo drift sick **** and spit at your heaven"
That and No Kings are actually my favorite songs of the album as of late, it's just pure hip hop.

A lot of the other songs are either extremely melancholy or very subject focused, which i have to be in a particular mood for, but these two tracks I can always jam out to. They sound more in line with fantastic damage/company flow production style.
