Additional InformationMercurial Veteran Mf Doom Returns with a New, Pared-Down Moniker and Enigmatic Raps.
Reviews"Whether he's differentiating himself from the herd on the post apocalyptic 'Cellz' or making fun of snuggly dressed rap rivals on 'Batty Boys', Doom keeps his character intact.", "There's a stronger undercurrent of bitterness and a downturn in comedy, some of which feels tied in to a renewed malevolence in his villainous guise and some of which speaks toward something more personal.", "While the album is more a series of word puzzles than a memoir, it does occasionally illuminate the man behind the mask.", "Boasting a J Dilla production on 'Lightworks', a GhostFace Killah track, 'Angelz', with Raekwon guesting, and DOOM's inimitable lyrical skills throughout.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Beyond the hypnotic fascination offered by his staccato, rapid-fire rhymes, there's a wider resonance....It's exhilarating to discover someone out there is still willing to test the limits.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "If DOOM's right, we're under constant threat, not least from DOOM himself when he unleashes his machine gun flow."
