"Its a really solid album through and through. It just sounds much much more assured and beautiful than his debut a year before. The songs are consistently gorgeous and topical yet timeless. In songs like "That's What I Want To Hear" its amazing cuz the concerns aren't dated at all. And his tribut..." [+] Reply

"Sharply written post-punk album about sex and the role of gender." Reply
"Hearing Say What You Will got me more excited for this album than I'd ever have anticipated. Its one of the best tracks of the year and probably the best thing he's recorded, so to get to the album and have it be exactly the same as each of his other albums was absurdly disappointing. A good albu..." [+] Reply
"It took several listens to come to this conclusion, but this is Of Montreal's second-best album, after "Hissing Fauna". The hyperpersonal freak-out era is over and the band is making accessible music again, albeit with their own perverse sensibilities and a dash of '60s jangle pop." Reply
"A seriously great collection of energetic and dirty sounding songs. The vocals and distorted instruments go so well together. I can't believe these guys aren't more talked about. This and their even better follow up are two of the best albums of the era. Each song on the album can stand on its ow..." [+] Reply

"“There’s this woman on the internet, Even if she’s some Nigerian guy Yeah well you should read the poetry he speaks to me, i don’t care if they’re just beautiful lies.” Holy shit lmao this album is fuckin amazing." Reply
"Where has this been all my life? This is an album that is worth it for the first track alone. “Bloodletting” is a bluesy voodoo groove that sets the tone for this album perfectly. The sinister groove within this song makes its way through the remainder of the album, coloring everything in its den..." [+] Reply

"As a fan of Noel and hater of Liam Gallagher, I have to say this album is not that bad. Some songs remind me of Oasis second era, but overall I'm quite surprised. However I still hope Noel to beat this with his next release." Reply
