Perhaps the most self concious review I’ve ever read here. I expect more from you Stereogum.

This album pretty much buries anything else I’ve heard this year.

Lyrically it does, without a doubt.

Reer. I liked it.

I’m going to recant that. I just listened to “Impossible Soul” again and it is every bit as good as these other two songs, if not better.

Agreed. “Djohariah” and “All Delighted People” are better songs than anything on the Age of Adz.

I’ve listened to the album twice now, and I think its probably the best record he’s released. It feels more cohesive than his other ones. Less sprawling in some ways. More focused (despite the lack of overall “concept” or ‘thematic underpinnings” or whatever the State albums had going for them).

However, for me personally it isn’t easy to listen to, but that’s not to say it isn’t enjoyable. It just requires more of my focus to experience it than I can give casually, which is fine. It just means that I won’t be able to spin the album any old time and place.

I just listened to “Impossible Soul” again, and I think it’s a masterpeice. Totally epic.

Also really love “I Want To Be Well” and “Age of Adz”.

Holy Hell. This is fantastic.

This is not good music.
