Very good album
As usual TMBG delivers. Authenticity Trip, Marty Beller Mask, Now I Know, How Now Dark Cloud? and Money For Dope are great pop songs. TMBG has cornered the intelligent, fun,. quirky pop-song market.

The first half of the album is new material, catchy, interesting material, but it's no Join Us. ARNTQ feels like a really long EP/B Sides, and was meant for fans that are already fans. Some standout songs are Marty Beller Mask, How Now Dark Cloud, and Mountain Flowers. The last half of the album is covers (Havalina by the Pixies!) and remakes of some really early songs. I've already deleted Tubthumping from my library because the song wasn't that good to begin with and even They can't save it. All in all, it doesn't feel cohesive as an album, and you should be a pretty big TMBG fan to extract the potential from these songs.
