The album is extensively produced, not only in the sense of beat-composition in which Automator has done a splendid job with, but in which everything is presented; the story wrapped and maintained, the mixing of sounds so preciously placed.
The album evokes a sense of awe; a truly believable tale, undoubtedly meant to be played from beginning to end.
The album's aura is wrapped in a dark and desolate feel, where everyone is still bent on becoming an emcee, and old Canadian beer commercials are considered visual masterpieces in art.
