Yeah, I thought it was his high point lyrically. The production wasn't great, i think it was him starting to produce his own stuff(because hail mary mallon, felt 3 were awesome), it sounds a lot like its trying to emulate el-p unsuccessfully. His intense snarl and aggravated tone carry it for me though, but I could totally understand being bored by it.
and of course i like sunny day real estate son!

Back to original topic.
Then, well into young adulthood came..
Viktor Vaughn and his Vaudeville Villain album.
This album changed my life and will be a hard album to ever beat as my personal favorite rap album. It's hard to describe why exactly. It's just that it was the first album that ever felt so totally complete. Everything just fits. Doom's rhymes, his voice, the beats, even the skits. I honestly feel that this album elevates rap into the realm of high art. Or at least that's how it felt back when it changed my life. After this, I could listen to each and every rap album with a more critical ear and allowed me to explore my deeper feelings about all rap.

So many great lines from this album.
