I don't know if anyone would be able to rap over these beats or melodies, but it still makes for a great listen. A wonderful collection of sounds.

Erm Well I really refuse grading or rating, i don't wanna force my opinion on you so i'll just explain what i like about the album or what it does to me.( I believe that by reviews that rate albums and critize them the reader often goes into a album with a colored opinion which is not fair)
Well it's in my opinion lo-fi garage rock at it best by 2 of the best guys in the scene.
Fast paced raw garage rock that walks the borders of pp and punk and does it without sounding wrong.
I think it's a easy listen if your used to lo-fi recordings.
