Review

Rolling Stone (6/21/01, p.76) - 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...An electrified head rush of street prophecy, dense wordplay and urgent truth-speaking....When Williams is in the zone, he spits enough fire to wreck a thousand mike nights..."
Spin (7/01, p.130) - 7 out of 10 - "...An antidote to the anti-dope....meaning cello-driven dirges, psychedelic guitar soul, live drum'n'bass...or all three.....A return of the boom-bast..."
Entertainment Weekly (11/02/01, p.78) - "...A genuine experiment - declamatory verse set to an absorbing collision of Rage-style metal, drum-and-bass overload, and solemn, spiky chamber music..." - Rating: B+
Q (Summer/01, p.112) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...An intelligent impassioned and invigorating collection..."
The Wire (1/02, p.41) - Ranked #11 in Wire's "50 Records of the Year 2001".
The Wire (8/01, p.58) - "...Like an incense-fumed, contrarian kiss off to anyone who ever wanted to label Williams as 'merely' an exceptionally talented MC..."
Mojo (Publisher) (9/01, p.110) - "...Joins the dots between such diverse lyrical talents as KRS-One, Latyrx and Carl Hancock Rux, and proves Williams more than capable of keeping their comapny."
NME (Magazine) (8/18/01, p.45) - 7 out of 10 - "...A moving and intense album..."
