4.0 excellent | Zion | November 4th 12 | Information Age will be received well by anyone feeling disillusioned by the status quo of today's society. This is largely due to Buddhist, Pan-African and socialist influences in the lyrics. Though rife with references to all manner of conflict and calamity and true to Dead Prez form with an unrelenting distrust of government, capitalism, industry and institution, the album's strength and freshness lies in its ability to draw a hopeful message out of their otherwise bleak vision of a world in turmoil, highlighting solutions and alternative lifestyles with an emphasis on healthy habits ("Dirty White Girl"), fitness ("Time Travel"), atheism/Buddhism ("No Way As The Way"), among other messages ranging from hints of the militant social stances that Dead Prez fans have come to expect and uplifting new-age concepts of spiritual evolution, embracing change and rejecting false realities.
