It's a party record that combines R&B with rock guitars to bring the noise. The Neptunes know the way to get a hook into your brain, as they do on "Brain." Pharrell's falsetto is limited but inviting, but there's no mistaking that this is a producer's album: lyrics, for the most part, take a back seat to atmosphere, big choruses and the overall sound of it are the main focus. It's to The Neptunes' credit that almost all of it is memorable, with individual songs adding up to become more than the sum of their parts.
