This is the culmination of Peggy's career up to this point, every style of heard from him is in this thing. This is his best from what I've heard and this is the album you'd show someone wanting to get into Peggy. It's just super varied and endlessly creative with his different styles, production, and sampling. HAZARD DUTY PAY! still an absolutely goat track.
Every riff, every bassline, every beat, every word, every verse, every chorus, every song HITS! This album is so important to me, I can no longer give it less than a 100.
This is their worst??? This is underrated AF! Although the production/mixing is probably the weakest of any Strokes record. This has just as good if not better tracks than Angles and First Impressions. It was consistently more catchy and fun overall.

This project creates a whole universe within it's 25 tracks that feels familiar and foreign all the same. This project is truly one of the most ... read more
Both Is This It and Room on Fire are consistently great. I slightly prefer Is This It but this record takes the foundation of their debut and makes it sound sharper.
This was the most personal I've ever seen death grips get, and I'm all for it.
