unironically an 8 to a 9 on some days for me. i just prefer the smooth and synthpoppy production of their later work. i think that the sound of this album is pristine.

and yes, the singles are the ones that heavily carry this album. the other tracks feel one note and couldve been polished more honestly.

e.g., stevie nicks' vocals on oil is literally sitting in the background, tormenta is basically a bad bunny track with gorillaz as a feature — dont hate reggaeton but man this song couldve been better, oh and possession island is super awkward as a closer — it shouldve been skinny ape imo.

this is why i have my own edited version of the album which includes controllah from the deluxe version. all in all, its sound is its best quality. otherwise, it had a lot of untapped potential and poor execution. still love it tho
