"Crazy to think that this concept came to be from 4chan, after asking users for two genres that might make an interesting blend..

"One of two worthwhile albums by Matt Good. His biting reflections of society meld well with his cutting hooks. Underneath it all, he has a strong sense for melody. Good, but not great."  Reply

"This album is a life changing experience for me. When I listen to it in my car, I feel like I am a controller in a NASA mission control station. Am I crazy ? Maybe...

"At the end of his new album, Quelle Chris wonders how he will be remembered: "Twenty disks on the counter / Always presented as a new artist every other time" ("Wyrm").
