Even before this record was out, several music magazines and websites started to refer to it as “The Best Album of 2009″, while Uncut Magazine called it “one of the landmark american albums of the century.”
The album cover, based on optical illusions by Japanese Psychologist Akiyoshi Kitaoka, is what I imagine when I throw this on for my usual siestas (that always seem to be interrupted by Email phone vibrations, keeping me in a perpetual Stage 1 drifting mode that leaves me more frightened than relaxed).
The moving optical illusions always dazzle me for hours.
