Not at all folk in the contemporary sense. Very boring. Do not understand what the point of most of the stories are. I kinda feel like there is a reason musical story telling evolved passed this medieval kinda feel. Fav Track: Farewell, Farewell
I didn't realize how influential this album was to Rap production like everywhere. This shit rocks. Fav Track: Pump Pump
Nina Simone is cool Fav Track: Either Way I Lose
How can you not like Marvin Gaye? Fav Track: Distant Lover
Amazing instrumentation, interesting, doesn't over stay it's welcome.
They sound less full and energetic than I'm used to with Beastie Boy's tracks, and has pretty uninspired and uninteresting beats that change like 3 times a song for no reason. But there are some real jams and hard going sounds and songs. It's just far too intermittent. Fav Track: Looking Down The Barrel Of A Gun
Fun and a great change of pace after Paul's Boutique Fav Track: The Magic Number
Kind of boring. The first half of the album is for sure the best half. Fav Track: You Can't Walk In Your Sleep
Banger. Really fun and energetic. Very unique sound and sampling, almost unlike anything I've heard from a rap/hip-hop album.
Hit or miss for me.
Music to be Fast & Furious to
Not super interesting for most of it, picks up a bit towards the middle. A lot of it feels kinda similar to Quebec by Ween, there's just a little too many elements that just don't exactly fit, making it feel kinda noisy. For sure at it's best when it's more sentimental. Fav Track: Run! Christian, Run!
It's kind of a relief when the Title track ends. So long, so repetitive. For Why. I got so tired of the album so fast.
