"This was surprisingly pleasant listen for me. Please don't immediately reject my comment here because I'm giving it 7.5/10 stars. This is coming from someone who normally has no tolerance for the really formulaic EDM that's so popular with people who fail to find music beyond Spotify premade play..."  [+]  Reply

"Really good, track for track, but you could cut three or four songs here without missing anything. Otherwise, terrific songwriting--if a little samey--and even better production."  Reply

"One of the coolest records ever. Still Bill, is still Bill's greatest album. Songs such as, use me, and especially, who is he, are just absolutely stunning. One of the great soul records. Essential."  Reply

"This defied all my expectations. I thought it was going to be 'generic King Gizzard material', but this record may be one of their best, if not their best album to date. Very consistent from start to finish. I can't even tell which songs are my favorites because every one of them is amazing!"  Reply

"I am quite surprised that I am the first person leaving a comment for this superb album. What a great chill out, funky, up-beat experience this is. Coming out in 79 it has a very eighties feel about it which I absolutely love. Stunning production which jumps out of the speakers, well, the vinyl d..."  [+]  Reply

"No one is more in the bag for this record. It took To Pimp a Butterfly to beat it for my AOTY the year their debut was released.
