Been playing this on my ipod since i got the leak... it's like a Team Sleep album except you replace Chino with a chick (Yes Alexander), & the drums aren't as aggressive.

Yes Alexander has this EP out with her old outfit The Casual Lust, & you could tell BSBD had did a lot of work with her... vocals are really dope (well placed, effective, & very lyrical - as stupid as that sounds but she's come a long way it sounds).

I think they said this album was actually recorded in 2007, which actually makes sense to me for some reason - but it has a bit of a dated sound (not that it's a bad thing). First run through it i thought it was weak, but it's grown like crazy on me. Stand out tracks for me are - Movements, Stillness, Tokyo Underground, & Once Away. Less "experimental sounding," & driven more by Yes than the vocal samples & beats driven Late Night Cinema release.

I mos def recommend this record for you guys. I have it in my favorite releases this year. If you heard it already, let me know what you thought.

Grabbed it off the strength of BSBD...grab everything by them I can get my hands on. Listened to a few tracks, and it's straight. I can't get into the vocalist too much, but what I heard sounded ok. Gonna listen to it straight through in the next couple of days and see if I can get into the vocalist.

didnt like it, their hi-hat arraignments can be really weird sometimes. this and Late Night Cinema had this hollow quality to them

their debut and the album w/ Hell Razah is their best work, Jean Grae joint wasnt bad either
