You know what it says in the Sacred Book of Blank: Thou shalt scribe a comment - yea! E'en but a line or two - else thou shalt not be counted in the vote. Verily, 'tis written.

Meh, I have a love/hate relationship with Townsend. I can really love some of his material, but some of it makes me reach for the fast-forward button. This would have my thumb consistently pressed down. In fact, I might just hit stop and be done with it. Actually sounds like he's just ****ing around, screaming like a three-year old (there's even a sound sample of a baby crying at the end of one of the tracks - I know how that kid feels!) and while there are some decent musical ideas, such as in "Room 429", they're battered aside by most of the rest of the album. I wouldn't listen to this again. Give it a four maybe.
