}}Pomegranate is the third solo studio album by American hip hop artist Astronautalis. It was released via Eyeball Records on September 23, 2008.[6] Music videos were created for "Trouble Hunters"[7] and "The Wondersmith and His Sons".[8]

Critical reception

Cap Blackard of Consequence of Sound gave the album a grade of A+, saying, "Pomegranate is intricately constructed and diverse in its musical and lyrical make-up."[3] Meanwhile, Jer Fairall of PopMatters gave the album 5 stars out of 10, calling it "a portrait of a clearly talented artist who has not yet learned how to temper his innovation with the necessary discipline."[4]

"The Story of My Life" was NPR Music's "Song of the Day" on September 23, 2008.[9]

In 2009, Consequence of Sound placed the album at number 71 on the "Top of the Decade: The Albums" list.[10]
