^I listened to that yesterday. Really dig it. It's nothing fantastic, but it's still good for what it is.

Any personal highlights from the album? I'll be straight with you and admit that this one didn't catch me at first. It took a couple listens for me to really appreciate it. You might give it another shot if you feel like it.

Nothing quite stuck out upon first listen. I plan to listen to it again because I did like the sound a lot. Some of it was very cliche though so it wasn't anything amazing. It's still quite good though. Definitely a surprise in some ways.

Because my opinions are sharp like knives.

I listen to pretty much all of LP's discography every year. I kinda dig the stuff because it was what got me into heavier music. Do you hate it though? Or do you still like it?

Proud to say that that album was never a part of my childhood and I still have yet to hear anything from it besides the singles (and the DJ Shadow influenced track because I was curious)

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.
