Besides the fact that there is zero filler, this album is amazingly consisent. Besides the obvious classic singles, the rest of the LP is littered with outstanding musicianship, thought provoking lyrics, and unique production. The band added new instrumention and experimented heavily at a time when they could have played it safe. Great theme and execution.
