Good as hell. I've recently had to consider if it's as good as hell as Alligator however, which is disconcerting considering how much I love this album.

I hate that song! (Personal reasons, long story) What is it doing on a thread about Boxer? 🧱

If you haven't listened to this album, wait for it to start raining outside. A really grey, rainy afternoon.
Then watch the ending of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and inhale a fatty while staring out the window at the murky sky.

Weird I just saw that movie. I expected more. And I still need to hear this album, i've only heard Slow Show, amazing song.

Somewhere in the top 20 of the 00s. Very very good stuff. And to think, the first two times I listened to it, I thought it was incredibly mediocre. Hmph.
