pH7 is a bit lackluster, and doesn't yield its fair share of classics, but it remains an enjoyable album and surely is more comfortable to listen to than The Future Now -- if comfort is something you're looking for.
Easier listening than The Future Now and ends with Mr X and Faculty X, which are two of his coolest tracks.
Somehow I feel that Hammie wasn't miserable enough while writing for this...
pH7 is basically The Future Now but a bit better and better executed as well resulting into some great experimental/art rock bangers and some nice smaller singer-songwriter songs.
