the album cover represents the sound perfectly

[jackely]

This is the first full injury reserve project I’ve listened to and it completely blew me away. They managed to create something so dark, dystopian, abstract and almost otherworldly while also conveying so much raw emotion. It really captures the mood of what the world is like rn imo

[hanzo_often]

Thank you for reviewing this album. My AOTY.

RIP Groggs. I wish he could see the acclaim this is getting.

[hidden]

this is one of the few albums that genuinely blew me away with it's sound and emotion

[suffermore]

this album sounds like hitting the tendon of your elbow really hard

[zaidsiddiqui]

This album sounds like that feeling when you've cried so much that you can't even speak anymore

[BobsonQDugnutt]

Wait I thought that was a funny quip at first but you're actually speaking factually

[adamprice]

This album is amazing. Easily album of the year so far, it is like if chest pain was cathartic.

Rest in paradise Groggs.

[dopeiguana]

it makes you *feel* the effects of a close friend's death, both with how little groggs is on the album and how fractured it sounds musically. masterpiece. rest in peace Stepa J Groggs

[Cayque]

It's like trying to remember the song you heard in a dream after you're fully awake

[andrevitalpardue]

Legitimately one of the most cathartic listening experiences I've had in the past couple years.

[JoshBurcham]

The first time I heard this thing properly with headphones and the lyrics pulled up I felt sick to my stomach, vaguely upset, and very impressed the whole time

[Juli_is_Online]

...yeah, this album sure was a tough pill to swallow.

RIP Groggs

By The Time I Get To Phoenix is such a vibe, and my only gripe with it is that Knees is the second to last track. That song has "opening track" written all over it.

[pedroordoneza]

This album is heart wrenching, confusing, and threatening all at the same time. It sure hurts.

[hamoreariel]

I wish groggs can see the love that this album gets

[JJJackson]

you are a legend my guy for simply bringing more attention to Injury Reserve, respect.

Long Live Stepa J Groggs.

one of the better albums that made 2021 one of the best years for music in a loooong time

[TJKerrell]

I like the album purely based on the art it is. I can’t go back and listen to it for a vibe or anything, and there aren’t individual songs I find myself returning to. It’s like going to a museum and appreciating an art display for what it is: art.

[nicoquet.]

that black midi sample so on point tho'
