just bought it today. i have to say the good parts are amazing, but there's so much dead space on the album full of just random ambience...it makes it hard to sit through the full thing without fastforwarding once and awhile.

and the track listing makes no sense at all.

yeah i totally agree, but the good parts are way better than anything in de-loused, even the dual spacey solos in Citracez E.S.P aren't as good as as the stuff on here. i think i like it a lot more, but i'm in the minority there. omars guitar playing on this is improved immensly, he's got psychadellic chops.
