"Beautiful, shattering, remorseful about the dire state of things but strangely hopeful in the end, a warm wooly blanket that actually has something important to say but doesn't wallow in feigned misery- a masterstroke from a promising artist who has finally come into her own." Reply

"This is where it started. The hyperreal mess that was Future's life after his relationship ended, and the music that perfectly expresses the confusion and sadness he's feeling. And "hyperreal" doesn't mean "very real". It is also the mixtape that showed Future could probably fill a whole album wi..." [+] Reply

"A truly great album. Pimp C really came into his own as a producer and - along with Tip/Phife and Ghost/Rae - they complement each other as MC's as well as the best duos in hip-hop. No filler on this album, a landmark in Southern hip-hop." Reply
"The most addicting album I've ever heard; I can listen multiple times on repeat and never get even a little tired of it. Masterful as both pop and rock, an album that doesn't sound quite like anything else, full of unique character." Reply

"In the 80's, you weren't cool without this album. Stan Ridgeway was different from anyone, and this record was as on the edge as LA New Wave would ever really get." Reply

"I was really surprised when I first heard this. After several albums where I thought they had got into a rut and maybe even lost interest they produced what I think is a collection of excellent and varied songs with many a bit different from their earlier work. Violins and Tambourines, In a Momen..." [+] Reply

"(Clean, professional, epic, varied, subtly ambitious, well-realized, piece of Pop ((in so many varied forms)) that never falls short of technical brilliance. Although it rarely blows me away or hits me on a personal and emotional level, its clearly a fucking major musical accomplishment.) This is..." [+] Reply

"Pretty much a mess, with occasional glimmers of better. Would never have guessed had I heard it new that I would be listening to this band as much as anyone for the next 50 years. I own it for completeness, but listen to it as duty once in a long while." Reply
