    Doseone is, and always has been, a wild-card, and the crazy audacity he shows on G Is For Deep might just make it his wildest album yet.

    Doseone's keen ear for a pop melody and hip-hop's punch keep him on course. [Aug 2012, p.71]

    Yet for all Doseone's phantasmagoria and keening schizophrenia, there's a melodic richness that miraculously sculpts order out of the panicked disco chaos. [Aug 2012, p.85]

    At first it's almost intriguing, then alienating, then irritating; ultimately you're reminded why you never really listened to Animal Collective until they discovered the joys of a good tune. [Sep 2012, p.100]

    Your appreciation for this fascinating, frustrating album will ultimately depend on your tolerance for Doseone's unique voice – a strangled croon that threatens to turn milk.

    G is for Deep remains an album driven by lustrous compositions and like any good artist, Doseone's voice dutifully abides.

    Funny, relevant, incisive, compassionate, and even profound-this is the stuff a Great album [is] made of.
