The album is called Truth Crushed to Earth Shall Rise Again, but the cover of the CD reads Truth Crushed To Earth Will Rise Again. The album title is a line from the poem "The Battle-Field," by William Cullen Bryant.[10]
Critical reception edit
Sputnikmusic wrote that "the trio’s most rounded, consistent & memorable LP is grossly under-appreciated."[8] Vibe wrote that the majority of DJ Lethal's beats are "surface-level and boring."[11]
