Title track is one of the best songs ever. Enjoy the calmer songs more as opposed to the heavier ones, but this album does a good job of balancing the two well. For a while I never understood this album or the hype around it until I finally sat down and gave it a chance.

Overall rating on first listen: 9.4/10
