    this is one of the most killer albums i've heard in.... a long while. They have given bass player a reason to live

    This is a very good album, but I don't think it deserves all the praise it has received as the repetitive produciton does get a bit tiresome towards the end. And the last song, "Sexy Results", is terrible. I still love the album, but its not without its problems. If you want a bass and drum duo that could kick these guy's collective ass, check out Lightning Bolt.

    Forgive me if somebody's already said this or hinted at it but... Please, PUH-LEEZE get this drummer together with Lil' Jackie White and let them bash and smash it out at the full moon together! PLEEEEZE! What's more, keep the bass player, obviously!!! That would be such sweet icing on a ferocious, beautiful CAKE! PLEEEEEZE! I mean, they don't freakin' live that far apart, do they? (Where's Detroit? Where's Canada, for crying out loud! Introduce these guys today!!!) Expand

    Simply amazing. Brain bubbling bass, screaming vocals that are actually good, and those bastards broke up because they got tired of each other after a few months on tour. They should be put on a tribunal, for crimes against the world of music for denying it a succinct pleasure

    this album sucks, plain and simple. it's nowhere near the hint of genius they showed on "heads up." every song sounds the same. you'd be better off buying anything than this.

    This is one of the most entertaining albums I have heard all year. There are no bad songs. Everything is catchy in a strange way. Buy it. Now.

    1. I second the poster who compared this to QOTSA. It is very similar, but more primitive, less going on in the songs. 2. "Black History Month" is my favorite song of the year (then again "The Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret" was my favorite song of the year a couple years ago).

    There is nothing like this album. If you don't like it at first, listen to it again.. and again. You'll wonder why you didn't like it.. becuase you now can't live without it. Then you'll wonder why NIN and Queens aren't open for them. These guys are musical gods. They also have a good taste in shoes.

    A solid, original album, but hurt by some production and vocal weaknesses. It doesn't have enough sonic punch for the metal side, and lacks enough of a strong vocalist for the dance side. Still, I can't stop playing it. Deliciously volcanic stuff.

    excellent, innovative, sexy. fans of queens of the stone age should check them out, it's relative with a twist of indie and dance.

  1. Pulses with a steady, sweaty energy that's punctuated with arena-sized hooks.
  2. Give[s] Skyward In Triumph and Earth 2 a run for the title of Best Album By A Duo, ever. [Jan 2005, p.113]
  3. A danceable yet heavy album.
