Proof once again that Styler is one ahead-of-his-time dude. It's not too different from a lot of the experimental stuff coming out these days like Antipop Consortium and Shabazz Palaces. The thing that I noticed first was how 'modern' this record sounds. The Styler mixes up his trademark rhyme flow by doing some slower tracks, and some extremely fast ones.there's also some fucked up distortion on a number of the vocal tracks, probably because it sounds cool. I was pretty surprised by how good it is, because doing a 'sequel' to your first (and best-selling) album is kinda a cheap means of getting people to buy it.

Then, after appearing on House of Pain's swansong 'Truth Crushed to the Earth Shall Rise Again,' he dropped this album in '98. The record completely alienated him from most of his peers, and Divine Styler didn't put out another release for several years. Plus, if you recall, I put one of the Styler's other albums up here a while back. That album, 1991's 'Spiral Walls Containing Autumns of Light' was a mind-fuck, not-really-rap-at-all album from a trippy dude who hung with the 5% hip hop crowd. ![]() I'm putting this up here because it was a real shitty time finding it.
