It's the best album of 2013, and that's just how it is.

that Lou Reed review is just perfect and dead-on. if i can maintain goosbumps for almost half an album then its classic in my book. i think "Hold my Liquor" is one of the center pieces of the album. the way it falls apart in certain moments, the guitar squalls and that solo. the last three songs can kinda fuck off, but still, the first 7 songs are blissfull.
Yeezus kills MBDTF and im not even a Kanye freak.
