"This album is just another proof that people here dont know how to actually listen and properly rate. Hip hop gets too much hate for dumb ass reasons. This is a southern under rated classic. Funky and conscious."  Reply

"Possibly the best 70s punk record, and yes, I'm aware of the existence of London Calling. Seriously though, this record is so much fun you won't even believe it. Just a bunch of ridiculously talented people playing around with angry music and giving the best they can. Incredible."  Reply

"An album now part of the memory of my vanishing youth. The balance of rock to pop ratio is the exact amount to stimulate my ears, and get my body moving on a dance floor when really its just my living room at 1:00 am on a saturday night. Top Three tracks Glass Ceiling Poster of a Girl Monster Hos..."  [+]  Reply

"Hobosapiens is a triumph, an amazing album that any fan of Cale or of experimental music should own. The first four tracks and the last four tracks are all brilliant, but my favourites are “Over Her Head” and “Things”. Also, I love the nice little message hidden in the small print. Not all artist..."  [+]  Reply
