Cypress Hill 3: Temple of Boom Review
Four years since the L.A. group's first pro-pot anthem, "Stoned Is the Way of the Walk," Cypress Hill is still telling us they love to smoke ganja. How B-Real and Sen Dog waste their days is their business, but it makes you wonder: What's wrong with their personal lives that they need to be stoned all the time? And how can they be so enthusiastic about it? III (Temples of Boom) exhales the same clouded sentiments of past albums, but offers no answers.

Herb is never far from the conversation on Cypress Hill records--how they smoke more than anyone, how they were rapping about it before anyone--but they never explain why, never suggest they derive something positive (or negative) from pot. Though III's "Illusions" begins with an Indian sitar, presumably a reference to '60s drug culture's Eastern influence, there's no expanded consciousness in the accompanying raps. Cypress Hill champion drug use, it seems, to bolster their outlaw image; they place pot smoke alongside beat-downs, just another illegal activity to prove they're bad dudes. --Roni Sarig

This album, just like the other Hill albums is some of the best music I've ever heard. The way the rythm is and the lyrics are great. This is how all hip hop should be. Defenitly get temple of boom and if you have extra cash just buy all their albums. These guys are the best of the best.

This IS Cyrpess HIlls best album...EVER...if you thought Black Sunday was great this is superb! The beats and music by Muggs are at his best and B real with the help of sen dog to back up the good raps and rhymes. Also did I forget to mention this is there darkest work yet? With the tuned down, deep stoned yet very dark beats and some ill lyrics goin on this is some of the best music the Hill has ever produced. Best tracks are of course Spark another Owl(good song to listen to, stoned), Let it Rain, Illusions(best Hill song ever....)tracks 11, 10,9, 8, 7, 15 AND There ya have it...

Best Cypress Hill album, 5/5 stars

I gotta say that when I first got this disc many years ago, I didn't really listen to it all that much. I liked a couple songs but went back to Black Sunday everytime. For whatever reason, aside from the fact that Cypress is one of the phattest hip hop talents out there, I started playing this album recently. Now I can't stop listening to it. I like how the beats and lyrics are so dark and anti-"hit single". Very creative and deep. And while you won't find any "insane in the membrane" on this cd, you will find a ton of phat trax.
