I can't browse the internet and listen to it because it's so hypnotic. I'm not sure how you feel about wu as a whole, but I would say it's not 'entry level'(another term I hate to use) for them. I don't agree but I can understand the argument that some people make that their music is boring at times, and gza is one of the less 'fun' members, but if you're a fan of the sound I don't see what would make it less appealing then say 36 chambers or supreme clientele.

not to mention I think the kill bill (or whatever movie it's originally from) sample is an awesome album opener.
My biggest complaint with Liquid Swords is the most critical aspect of the album: GZA's voice. I can’t stand to listen to him, and the entire album unravels for me because of it. The title track in particular is more isufferable than listening to Axl Rose.
