For whatever it's worthy, I'm a solid Atmosphere fan. A lot more so than Aesop but that's because Slug is a lot easier to listen to (in my opinion) that Aesop and he consistenly works with better MCs.
Lucy Ford EPs and LP? Really good shit. Seriously.

Joining the 'easy punching-bag artists' queue anytime soon? M.O.P. one far behind??? Hmmn, I didn't think so.
But saying that they are terrible & Slug is corny is a bit rich... ...they might not be your taste, but 'terrible'...? Can't agree at all.
Slug is one of those rare emcees that girls like because he's open with his feelings & guys like him because he expresses his frustrations with relationships that they can relate to. How is that corny? Getting girls into good hip hop is a hard task as it is. Can't see that as a bad thing. Prior to their Epitaph signing they weren't exactly the 'cool' kids on the block as they are now. Though I see what you mean. They might now be seen as the hip hop they can like when reading Vice mag.
At least he's not a vapid single minded emcee who talks about being in 'the club' all the time. And I'm not some card carrying Rhymesayers fanboy.
Though I do rate Brother Ali over Slug, but that's not taking anything away from Slug.
i mean, there's no need for an explanation. i personally think they're terrible. slug is extremely corny to me, and the production is just blah. but that's cool that you dig them or whatever, i have no problem with that.

Not that I've listened to a whole lot of his material, but from what I've heard, I really couldn't stand him.
I thought dude sucked til I saw him live. still not checkin for his rackords but mos definately worth seeing if he rolls through yer town.
I didn't really believe ANT existed.
One dog's looking that way, the other's looking this way and the guy's like, "Hey what'dya want from me."
