I really love this album! Too bad BEA was completely fucking dead today and there wasn't much talk on this beautiful album or the great aotd today.

Seriously though what the hell is the deal with te absolute lethargy of te forums these last 16+ hours? Soooooo lame-O!

Anyway, about this album, it was the record that introduced me to this amazing, incredibly unique band. They really did create their own style. And the song "The Story Of Hip Hop" is maybe one of my top 100 favorite songs ever! It's truly about as funny and lovely as any song has a right to be!

The Way Out >> The Lemon Of Pink = Thought For Food

And I haven't heard the rest of their discog

The site was down for much of the time since I posted this, at least for me.
