Oh man, really? Google describes it as a Rap Opera. Its a narrative story across all the songs. I first heard it when it was contemporary and obviously that was a different time. 20 years ago, 20 years younger. Any way, don't want to come across like "if you didn't like it, you didn't get it" is what I'm getting it. Its a quirky album.

Coldcut - What's that Noise (1001 Albums, 1/5)


Spiritualized - Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space (1001 Albums, 4/5)


Sepultura - Arise (1001 Albums, 2/5)
