    It's 10 tightly wrapped wads of black bubblegum, not a politicized sci-fi fantasia like "year Zero" or a two-hour drift into instrumnetal blip 'n' grind like this spring's "Ghosts I-IV." [July 2008, p.74]

    All in all this is a great album.
  3. Slant Magazine

    Individual songs on The Slip aren't particularly dynamic; the album has two levels: loud and soft.
