"I understand why someone who is into the earlier releases by Slipknot would find this soft or dull or commercial, but I have to say that I (who to be honest couldn't stand listening to their earlier albums) found this quite enjoyable.

The juxtaposition of each track is such that the whole album fits together in a very deliberate way. Once heard, songs like 'Beast and the Harlot,' 'Trashed and ..." [+] Reply
"I love this album, gotta say it's better than Backspacer, Lightning Bolt and "Avocado ?" should be ranked higher. Sure those rock harder but this is just much nicer and more interesting in a chill sorta way haha. Underrated, top tier Pearl Jam album!" Reply

"Fantastic retro album that really captures that pre psychedelic sixties sound. The sounds of Dusty Springfield and Lulu are all over the record. As a deliberate attempt to make a sixties drenched album, it works brilliantly. Pity she couldn't follow it up." Reply
