MarMay 31, 2006I don't normally like rap, but I made an exeption for a few and I make an exception here. Smart lyrics, great warm sound, anger and emotion. Love.

MBOct 20, 2005This is a great album from Atmosphere. The production finally comes together such that both the Slug and Ant complement each other incredibly.

AnselMOct 31, 2005Atmosphere is one of the greatest indie rap groups out there and this album is just more evidence of this. Is every cut spectacular? no. ...but, on a whole it is still that much better than ANYTHING else out there. Listen to tracks 8-13 (especially 9, 11, 12, and 13) for evidence of this.

msNov 8, 2005This is a simply stunning piece of work from one of the greatest rap groups ever formed. It contains some of Slugs most intricate and playful rhymes and the best production that I have heard from Ant. Beautiful, raging, confident, and dangerously close to becoming a full fledged classic.

RichardMApr 26, 2006One of the most exciting albums, Ive been a listener since I hard the bad dub album that my step sis had. Since the show that I saw last night. There is so much energy going through and where he plays. Its pure genius how he get everything going. No matter what happens to ant and slug, il be right behind them.

sashalDec 29, 2005dope. took a couple listens to hit the movement of slugs verbage. ant shines, and we get some ALMOST mainstream style beats and tracks, like arrive and musical chairs, with some non-mainstream lyrics and thought. if you didn't really feel this, give it another try.

This all could have been a drag in the hands of a rapper with less self-awareness or sense of humor, or without access to the deft production skills of Atmosphere beatmaster Ant.

Billboard[Atmosphere] has never sounded as pointed and focused as it does here on its fifth album. [8 Oct 2005]

Like Blackalicious' recent The Craft, it displays a real hard-earned competency, something a decade of recording together will get you. But the lyrics lack transcendence or resonance.
