are hyperbolic. jesus

really enjoyed the album. "don't die" (or more specifically the first 'movement' of "don't die") is probably my favorite cut. mike is really spitting on this album. maybe even stepping it up above pl3dge, which is saying a lot

el tailored his beats well to mike. it knocks waaay harder than i expected. that said, the most el-p-ish beats ("don't die", "butane", "willie burk sherwood", etc.) sounded better to me than his attempts to bring some funk/swing/southern flavor into the mix. that's just me though. all in all, they work really well together. they share an intensity that must be hard to stifle when they're working with others. glad they could let it all hang out on this one

great album. glad i pre-ordered the vinyl

and man does opn's "returnal" sound good after this album
