First impressions: feels more coherent than undun, which felt at times like they were reaching to be weird/arty. Here, the weird/arty feels very natural. I sort of get the complaints about BT not being on it more, but I don't think an album (piece of art) should be graded by # of appearances made by X. All of his verses are crazy good, doesn't feel like he's "missing" at all. Guests are all solid, too. After two listens, my only complaints are the hooks (and that's been my struggle since at least HIGO, probably even earlier).

I liked undun a lot, and it really grew on me over time. This feels even better right out the gate, and I think it will work its magic over time, too. Good stuff.
