It's long been my favorite Lennox project and left me scratching my head why most folks have slept on it. "Agg Report" is unrivaled and brilliant.

I find Merriweather Post Pavillion really hit and miss too. Besides being spotty song-wise, something about the production is too polished, like by mixing every little weird sound so cleanly the band has been robbed of their personality. I mean, imagine "Visiting Old Friends" mixed like the songs on MPP--it would lose everything that's great about it.
