REVIEW:

Haven't got much time so I'll just whip up something quick.

Another top quality album from the one and only Braille, the title sums up it's overall message very cleverly. You see the letters "IV" do not only mean the number 4 in roman numerals, showing that this is Braille's fourth album, but in medical terms it also means administration of nutrients through the veins. In this album Braille tries to show the listeners that "Jesus Christ is the cure for the human condition". And in my opinion, he does that quite well.

To sum it up: the rhymes are dripping with lyrical mastery, as usual. The production is top notch as well. Some stand-out tracks are... ah forget about it. Every track is brilliant. This is definitly a contender for best HHH record of the year.

Highly recommended.

5/5
