    The real average of this is a 77.5, so how come it says 85? MetaCritic does this a LOT. You guys should really fix that. This is a cool EP but I do think I'll be more interested by a full LP.

    Interesting choice from the duo to offer this striking sixteen-minute long EP. From start to end we are entitled to crazy sounds and tones. Both artists give the grittiest they can produce in order to craft what could be the best sample to a 2008 racing video game. The pace is terrific all along. Transitions are great but I found the climax of some tracks lack in grandeur and versatility.Interesting choice from the duo to offer this striking sixteen-minute long EP.

The pace is terrific all along. Transitions are great but I found the climax of some tracks lack in grandeur and versatility. In overall this EP remains quite repetitive in its core formula, as crescendos laboriously go on and on without adding that much to the whole product. Certainly original but it could have been even more creative. I wish they had also explored softer, more contemplative and introspective approaches. Because what we have here is too often garish.… Expand

    Even if TNGHT doesn't feel like a particularly rap-able EP... it's a totally rambunctious 16 minutes. The sort that reminds you of the good old days when HudMo and Joker, among others, were dropping EPs every few months that felt like they just might change everything.

    TNGHT may clock in at under 16 minutes, but it's the most satisfying quarter-hour blast you'll hear this year.

    The duo's debut, self-titled EP may only span five tracks, but after repetitive listens, replacing your amps, and multiple refreshment breaks, be prepared for it to take up an afternoon.
