Surprised by this album's lukewarm reception. Maybe not so much, because it's very subdued and subtle. But this album to me is outstanding. Reminds me of Madvilliany, which is similarly subtle and subdued but also similarly engaging and memorable. This album keeps me wanting to come back. I think every track on it is pretty great, really. As a whole I'm calling it exceptional at this point. Hopefully that opinion won't fade over thyme.
How do people feel about this album now it's been out for a while?
I still listen to some tracks from this album once in a while, it has good replay level and its one of the best Alchemist projects in a long time.
Roc Marciano is one of the dopest MC's in the game right now and he delivers on this album.
This album has a few bangers.
Great album. I think Alchemist's other recent records with Armand Hammer, Boldy James etc are just as good though.
Alc puts together these ill psychedelic soundscapes and doesn't work with bums. Even the most recent project with Larry June is dope, and hes not an exceptional rapper but they match each others energy perfectly.
Yeah, Larry June & Alchemist album is also pretty nice, really laid back feel good summer music.Quote:

I think it’s a great album. Still spinning it. Horns of Abraxus is a stand out. No bad tracks for me, though. Roc is incredible.
