Hmm…I haven’t listened to this one for a while. A couple years at least. Same with their debut. Personally I’m more of a debut guy, but this is a quality album too. I’m a big fan of the song with the keyboard…oh wait, that’s every song by them! Yeah I’ll re-acquire this one, legally of course 
and give it another whirl. I really like My Eyes Have Seen You, and People Are Strange and When the Music’s Over.

I had my first listen today…it was a bit rough. I feel there isn’t much depth to this album, it feels superficial musically and lyrically. I don’t mean to damper anybodies enthusiasm, I just think this album isn’t the greatest the Doors made by any means. It just sounds kind of hollow.
This album contains a reasonable amount of explicit language, edgy imagery and, God forbid, socially relevant issues. Listener’s discretion advised, specially if that’s not quite their thing. Myself, I’m definitely going to listen to this at work over the week. 
K.O.D.
Tech N9ne
Well, no one had done anything with this in a while so I thought I’d go ahead and post something. Why this album? The short answer is that is the album that is responsible for getting me to a point where I could tolerate and listen to rap.
All in all this is an excellent album. It has excellent depth lyrically, and really expresses the darkness and struggles that Tech was going through at the time. As far as the actual vocals go, lets just say Tech N9ne is one of the best, if not the best, in the game. The diversity is incredible; one minute it’s machine gun like speed raps with perfect enunciation, the next a slow smooth rhythm dripping with emotion, blink again and its excellent jazz singing.
All in all I enjoyed this album because of the overall depth, and the diversity of styles. Tech N9ne really can do just about everything, and it makes for a really fun listen.
While most of the songs on the album are excellent songs, there are definitely a few that are just party songs. They are fun if that’s what you are looking for, but generally don’t have much lyrical substance or depth to them.
Highlights include; Show me a God, Demons, Blackened the Sun, It was An Accident, Shadows on the Road, Low, and K.O.D.

Warning: This album gets very explicit at times. If thats a major turnoff for you in music I wouldn’t recommend K.O.D.
Oh I’m definitely going to listen to this at work this week. 
Album lyrics here, if you click song name it’ll autoplay the song as well (and there’s a nifty “play all” link as well). So far, wow. I don’t know how to appreciate hip hop in all its diversity, and this guy’s style definitely falls out of my previous knowledge.
He’s a damn virtuoso! His voice and how he plays with it, the asyncopated rhythms, the lyrics with their powerful imagery and all the rage and the melody — it’s explosive! This is a very dark album and I love the feelings and doubts it expresses; these are very real. Every song leaves me wanting to talk about it. Awesome.
Another display of how hip hop is definitely the rightful heir of rock music.
Yea, Tech is about as good as anyone I have ever heard when it comes to rap/hip-hop, and he is incredibly versatile. He can speed rap, stacatco, tongue twisters, smooth, and sing pretty well. Plus his general style is infectious and fun to listen to.
I think one of the things I really love about the guy is that he does things his way. If you listen to his interviews he wants more than anything to be known worldwide and have massive success, but he won’t take the easy way out with a major label record deal because he doesn’t feel he would be able to make music thats true to him. He have to fake shit he isn’t feeling and be constrained in the ways Tech wants to express himself. He does alot of his stuff based on what he is experiencing; KOD was made during a really tough time in his life when his mom was fighting all kinds of stuff, a friend had recently died, etc so the music was very dark and depressed cause thats what he was going through.
