  1. The wildly disparate influences and sensibilities mesh to great effect on this stunning album.
  2. On Naked Self, Johnson hasn't let up one bit. His tongue is as sharp as ever, and his songs show that updating one's style doesn't have to mean dressing in this year's airwave fashions.

    It seems that Matt Johnson was a little bit tired of commercial songs and fall back to his roots. The album is a little hard to grab at a first hearing. Like almost all Matt's albums, it grows up everytime we heard it. It seems the perfect soundtrack for George Orwell's 1984. Expand

    Melody and harmony are almost completely absent. Some of the lyrics are embarrassing ("Kentucky fried genocide" deserves to be repeated?).
