For all the ways in which this crew has grown, it still sounds like a bunch of punk kids having the time of their lives. And as long as they have that, the future is still odd for us all

When the sound isn’t purposefully low brow, OF Tape, Vol. 2 trades heavily in lackadaisical yet satisfying beats, the song structures waxing proggy at times

An excellent addition to the group’s canon, which despite Tyler’s pronouncements to the contrary matters to this crew, who it would be foolish to dismiss as mere feral skatekids

Sounds like a bunch of dudes in a dank basement cooking up the wildest smack talk possible, with one-upping each other being the primary objective

For the first time in their combined 15 albums they sound like nothing more that a bunch of kids who can't believe their good luck. And on OF Tape Vol 2, neither can we
