5.0 out of 5 stars The Way Forward, 19 April 2005
This album, as well as his first album Personal Journals, has changed my life. I can't listen to any hip-hop song without comparing it to those of this album and they usually turn out to be on top.
Tracks such as 'Sea Lion' offer you such interesting and unusual beats and lyrics that its hard not wanting to listen to it again as soon as its finished. 'Bridle' is written in pure poetry. Sage's voice acts more as an instrument in this song than anyhting else as his lyrics and beats meld together to give an amazing listening experience.

I would recommend this album to anyone who wants to try something new and 'underground'. The album sits comfortably right next to my hifi and will probably do so for a very long time.

In conclusion: great beats, great rhymes, great songs and great album

p.s. The last song beautifully finishes the album with a mellow country-ish theme.

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing follow up, 5 Mar 2005
By A Customer
When i first heard sage francis was releasing a second full-length album i was the happiest man alive - i am a massive fan having all the albums from the "sick of..." series to personal journals (and non-prophets' hope in-between). however upon listening to the album i was slightly disapointed. this album is different to any other sage francis release. but upon listening to the album several more times it dawned on me that sage francis had not fallen off, he had simply grown up.

the lyrics have moved from introspective to external... focusing on society and how it affects him, rather than his personal life.

for those new to sage francis, i would recommend buying personal journals first... because once u hear that album you'll be able to understand this one.

sage francis is possibly the most intelligent rapper alive; however he is also one of the most skilled technically.

if your into rap which you hear on the radio, you may not like this album, but its never too late to get hooked, like millions others around the world.

4.0 out of 5 stars Could disagree more with the bloke below...., 30 Mar 2005
By A Customer
Sage has more flow the Niagra. If you want to hear what sage is capable of then check out Escape Artist on this record. It's one of those tunes that are few and far between, the ones that can send you into an embarassing frenzy of spazz dancing whilst your driving, it sends shizzers down my arms. Oh, and Sea Lion - another awesome tune, featuring Bonnie Prince Billy on vocals and Alias on production duties.

This isn't a master piece as a whole, but there are genuine moments of hip hop genius on this record that more than make up for the fillers.

And what's wrong with lyrics that are intelligent or meaningful? Would you prefer the typical BLING BLING of the Top40 hip hop tripe we're force fed day in day out? If that's your bag, go hang with 50 pence.
