That's kinda true. I found the second half to be meh as well, but a couple of more listens has learned me that System Blower and Bitch Please are pretty f*cking good as well tbh. Hacker is kinda odd but I don't necessarily dislike it. The only real con to me is the beginning of Punk Weight. Nice try, but I think the high-pitched voices are just odd. The rest of the track ain't half bad, but the intro is awful to me.

As for Ex-Military: I don't think the second half is worse at all. While I like the overall sound of The Money Store better, Ex-Military seems to have it spread out better. The beginning has Beware, Guillotine and Spread Eagle Cross The Block, the middle has Takyon and Culture Shock and the end has Known For It and I Want It I Need It as some of the best tracks off the mixtape. (Yes it's actually a mixtape.) The Money Store has the best stuff focused on the first half but it's overall a stringer record IMO, although Ex-Military isn't far away from its level.

It's all about Get Got, I've Seen Footage, and Hacker.

Those are my favourites, too! I'M IN YOUR AREA.
It took me a few listens to really get into, but then, it's fantastic. I'm wondering how they will evolve and develop their sound in the future.

I really, really dig this album. I'd give it a strong eight (out of ten) bordering on a light nine, it's a really exciting, original and well performed, they've created a really unique style. I seem to like it more every time I listen to it and I'd go far enough to say it's one of my favorite albums of the year. '**** That' is my least favorite song, but none of the others are bad, it's hard to pick favorites but I'd go with 'The Fever (Aye Aye)', 'Blackjack', 'Hustle Bones', 'I've Seen Footage' and 'System Blower'. 'Hacker' is good too. A really great album.

First of all, let's see if No Love will actually accomplish to exceed the previous 2 albums and not fall flat.
