"Wonderfully experimental. This is the only album of it's kind and has the potential to influence pop for years to come. I think the rock-only nerds got to the album first (currently a 72) - ya'll know pop music can be good, right? Especially when it's this euphorically fucked up?" Reply

"Why is this album so influential? A lot of reasons. It certainly didn't invent electronic music, and it certainly didn't even popularize it. What it did do, in the same way that Silver Apples molded electronics with rock music, was produce a new genre of music which helped popularize electronica ..." [+] Reply

"This album. Wow. It's hard for me to accurately articulate the experience that I had with this album. This album took me through a range of emotions, it showed me the entire life experience of a human being. People talk about albums being life-affirming, this is it. Susanne Sundfør just kills it...."

"The fact that both this AND "Sometimes I Might Be Introvert" came out in the same year automatically makes 2021 a better year than 2020" Reply

"While it isn't my favorite Mothers release, I do think it is the perfect culmination of all the ideas present in the early part of Zappa's career. It has the pop flavor of Freak Out as well as the heavy jazz influence of Hot Rats." Reply

"This album is brilliant. It’s harsh like you would expect from her but also incredibly beautiful with elements of folk. Not to mention the incredible journey she takes you through the lens of Christianity that’s just as beautiful as it is horrifying. This is a must listen for sure whether you hav..." [+] Reply
