173923, I guess it's a theme more than a concept.

I'm not at all going to pretend there is a story line or an arc to the album. I'll admit that the roots can't do much wrong in my book. I was initially disappointed by "undun" but now I love it. You may read into that as me being a Stan who has allowed ?uest & company to increase my tolerance for what you perceive to be sub-par output. All I know is that listening to &TYSYC, to me, feels like THE ROOTS wih a twist of Eugene McDaniels "Headless Horsemen." It's dark. It's brooding. It gets experimental, but it's honest. Bottom line: I like it. If I'm gonna be part of the minority in that sense, I'm fine with that.
