Jul 19, 2023Review só pra lembrar a nota que eu dei pro album:
album mt bom, agora só escrever pra passar dos 75 caracteres. -
Apr 9, 2023By the Time I Get to Phoenix is a heartbreakingly beautiful Injury Reserve album that will leave you emotionally changed. It's as experimental as anything I've ever heard, but it works beautifully, Overall, an astoundingly emotional and charged album that is a must-listen for any experimental fan.

Nov 4, 2022Wow, mindblowing. To be honest, it took me some time to understand its greatness. But when I did, I could not stop listening to this. I feel like this album stands on its own and no one will ever be able to recreate something like this. Top Picks For You and Outside broke me. Easily both top 5 songs from 2021. Amazing mindboggling album

Dec 10, 2021This is the AOTY and decade so far. It is mind blowing how weird it is but doesn't sacrifice the catchiness from their older albums. I cannot stop listening to it. The beats on this sound like they have created a new genre. The lyrics are amazing. Perfect album.
top 3 tracks: outside, superman that, knees
no bad tracks

Sep 22, 2021This honestly just blew my mind. This album broke the barrier of what music can be. This feels like a downward spiral with insane production accompanied by some intense vocal performance. If you are a fan of experimental music definitely give this one a listen.
Best song is Knees

The WireDec 20, 2021Much like Mantronix, Injury Reserve’s strengths lie in their overall freshness, and the way they play with and reinforce hiphop’s borders. Phoenix is full of post-genre dynamics. ... Phoenix is a punch-drunk affair that finds Injury Reserve hurtling forward with a determined anguish. [Oct 2021, p.49]

Sep 23, 2021On By the Time I Get to Phoenix, they reintroduce themselves as wide-eyed explorers, a rep that suits their fascination with rap’s mechanics, its margins, and its future.
