Interesting how much it feels of a kin to Soulquarian material circa 2002, whether just a matter of obvious shared influences or being directly influenced by that era of Badu/Roots/Common/Dilla records.

My one real complaint is that the sequencing is kinda goofy, which I think is what really exacerbates some of the length complaints above. The interludes can really throw off the pace, and the EP tracks (especially Laputa and By Fire) seem wildly out of place in the structure of the record.

Swamp Thing and The Lung are my current highlights, with Fingerprints and Atari being jams that would probably have been saved as non-album B-sides back in the day.
