Some incredible tracks like Flowers, The Hilton, Walking Through the Darkness. Some overly sexual garbage with Ghostface talking bout his wet dick again or something. Majority of the instrumentals were very good, sampling was amazing, a few beats sounded super rudimentary and unfinished, though. Overall enjoyable.
It suffers a little too much from being repetitive in my opinion and anything techno/EDM is not my genre.
I don't feel like I should rate this because this was clearly not made for a guy like me. I don't even know why I listened to this, it just caught my eye and was on the front page of this site. Still going to rate it though to keep track of how many albums I've listened to in my life.
At a certain point you want more music than interludes. With how many are on here, it disrupts a lot of the flow of the album.
Honestly thought it'd be worse. It just sounds way too commercial for its own good.
Sorry Phil but this is terrible. What is a man supposed to take away from 30 minutes of this? A hum that is sometimes drowned out by a squeaky, dissonant motor? A review by Flowtr from Skramz says "It's simply a . . . piece dealing with the usual Phil themes: Impermanence, the weight of the universe, nature, a dark form of Zen..."
How?

Felt like Willoughby's Interlude could've gotten cut and the album would've been better.
He needs to stop doing these terrible random genre switches halfway through the album. The first half was great though, fun flows and hard beats.
The psychedelic, nostalgic samples and instrumentals blending trip hop, indie pop, and a bit of dream pop are super super cool. I love the way TV Girl samples old films and music while recontextualizing the dialogue or sampled lyrics to fit into their song. That said, the biggest reason why I dislike this album is the incel lyrics. They're so... weird. Listening to this, I was creeped out by the lead singer talking about sex and getting head. His voice sounds like what I imagine a stalker ... read more
Somehow Roscoe Dash ends up being the best part of this album.
So bloated, lyrically one-dimensional, flows rarely change, mixing is pretty awful.
In celebration of my 1000th album listened to, I decided to listen to the highest rated album on the site (depending on the day, sometimes TPAB fluctuates into 1st)! This is an album I've wanted to listen to for a long time, and my expectations were met. This is music itself at in it's purest form. Here's to 1000 albums and 1000 more in the next year!
