If you buy one Cypress buy this
When people think of Cypress Hill i guess they would (YAWN) think of "insane in the brain". But people out there who obviously know their stuff would be more likely to recommend this album which doesn't have THAT single on it. Point being, this album is their best.. best beats, best sound, best lyrics, its all there and you won't be disappointed

Cypress Hill at their finest?
I have always been a huge fan of Cypress Hill and Temples of Boom made me buy other albums such as - Black Sunday and Till Death Do Us Part - these are all great albums. For a rap fan I think this album is a must buy. It's dark and weird settings make the album one of Cypress Hills best.

Spooky and superb
A brilliant, brilliant album. I'm a big fan of Cypress Hill, and I would go as far as to say this is their best album. They've broken away from the funky beats of their first album and Black Sunday (still both quality albums), and have gone for an edgier, creepier sound.

The beats sound amazing. Muggs has combined hard-old-and-dusty drumbeats with booming baselines. He has added a 'record crackle' to most songs too, which really adds to the old school style. B-Real's rapping is at it's best ever, a brilliant sound and compelling lyrics. My favourite tracks are Boom Biddy Bye Bye, Stoned Raiders and Let it Rain.

Any CH fan that doesn't have this should get it now. It's hard to compare it to anything else.

The Best Hip-Hop album ever made
If you are a hip-hop fan and do not own this album you should be ashamed . This album is the best Cypress Hill have ever done hands down . The beats from Muggs on this album are amazing and obviously B-Real is awsome on this album . This album has a very sinister sound to it and with B-Real coming out with lines like "in the casket best wish's at the bottom of the lake sleeping with the fish's" it makes it a menacing album . But at the same time this album still has the chilled Cypress Hill vibe and what makes this album even more impressive is the fact that only B-Real and Muggs made this album no Sen Dog but on the strength of this album they dont really need him . Overall an incredibly dark and chilled album this is the Hill at their best with songs like Illusions, Killa Hill Niggas and Everybody must get stoned this album is pure class . If you like Illusions you should buy Unreleased and Revamped cause the version of Illusions is quality eventhough it has been censored .

Probably the best Cypress Hill album in the world
Let's get this straight. THIS is the best album Cypress Hill have made. Black Sunday is definitely their most well-known album and had all the big hits on it but this is better. It has a much darker sound and feel and has Muggs' most inventive work including samples of chanting monks, The Exorcist and even the mighty Black Sabbath. Not a bad track on the thing, among the best ones are Illusions, Locotes and Let It Rain. The original 2CD version (which you probably can't get any more) had a 20-minute "DJ Muggs Buddha Mix" bonus CD which has Muggs mixing snippets from the Hill's previous albums. That was great in itself. If you didn't buy this album back in 1995, you should be ashamed of yourself.
