“This album is beautiful, no other way to put it. It shows how much Earl changed, from not liking shit or going outside to now living, laughing and loving, it’s beautiful to see. My favorite tracks are TOURMALINE, Live, exhaust, Gamma (need the <3) and gsw vs sac.”

“This album is amazing. This isn’t a 10 because of a few songs that i think are skips. But man, the highlights of this album are amazing. My favorite tracks are Grief, DNA, Mantra, Faucet and Huey, with Grief being in my top 5 Earl Songs.”
