I dig the instrumental elements of that cd but the lyrics piss me off to no end.  More so towards the end of the cd when it is like "hey look at me, the hella weak MC", so many stupid rhymes...

Hell yes Blueberry Boat. I ordered it to give to my brother for Christmas but the shipment was delayed and he badmouthed it so I just kept it for myself. I had had it before, but I really wanted a hard copy.

Chief Inspector Blancheflower and Chris Michaels are the best songs, totally.

I have tabs of them up on ultimate-guitar, if anyone's interested. I know some people look down on tab and all that, but working out the chords was pretty fun.

That CD is classic in my opinion.
Chief Inspector Blancheflower is, indeed, AMAZING.
Is it kinda wierd that they remind me stongly of the Decemberists in the sense that both groups sing about really awesome wierd stuff?

I absolutely love 'Birdie Brain'. It is so rhythmic I just want to snooze with happiness when it's on.

Ok, this is really random but...

The only thing that bothers me about the album is one lyric from "Spaniolated".  The line is "The pain in Spain falls mainly on me". Now this nothing really wrong with the line but when I first heard the song I thought the line was "The rain in spain falls mainly on me" which while maybe less original is more symbolic and subtle. Anybody else feel this way?

(Sorry, I just REALLY had to get that off my chest) Anyone else have critiques or little complaints?

That line is kind of stupid either way. Oh well, one bad line, album still kicks ass.

To tell the truth not a lot in the album makes perfect sense when strung together, but who wants a novel when you can have awesome tracks like 'Quay Cur'?!
