honestly (and no offense to you atomic you know you ma boi), these personal angles that are so popular with the reviews on this site seem to work for people who are more interested in the reviewer than the music. This site is a bro-centric organization so it's not surprising but some of these reviews you can't tell what kind of music it was if you've never heard of the band beforehand and then like what's the point of reviewing if people are just stroking their own emotional rod through the whole thing


This is completely accurate. Chances are this comment will be deleted though, much like mine was for criticizing the style of this review.

Nah, it was actually just because you were trying too hard to be an utter asshat

Honesty hurts the sputnik faithful, I know. I acknowledge good reviews and am honest about the
shortfalls of others.

You, on the other hand, use words like 'asshat'.

@freedom - The promotion I was referencing was actually at my physical place of work, though, so I did edit the review a bit to have that stand out. There are a lot of great contribs out there and I don't want anyone thinking I'm more deserving than anyone else or that I have a lot of anxiety about reviewing (because I don't).



Otherwise, welp, sorry you didn't like the review. I don't always do them from this sort of an angle, but it's the way I was running while listening to and thinking about this album.



Not a big deal, honestly.

your comment should have definitely not been deleted - it was fair criticism and it's sad that someone had to delete it due to them not agreeing with your completely acceptable opinion

Great review, very relatable to me personally, and I liked how you were able to use the personal stuff to draw comparisons on the sound of the record. Very different, but well done in my opinion.

Froot, idk if you're still watching these comments, but the album is out physically, you can buy it from their Bandcamp page.

as long as I only listen to 3-4 songs at a time, this sounds great



it gets too samey otherwise, so I try not to indulge too much

I've listened to this album over 20 times now. I never really checked out this band (even though I've heard of them through Saosin fans), but I'm really happy I found them. Although I haven't really listened to pure instrumental albums for a while as well, this one gets better and better. Anytime I need to relax or want some good background music, it does the job.

Btw, great review. Always happy to see music impacting someone on a relatable emotional level. That's a huge aspect of what music's all about, right?

How can this album have a lower rating than their other two? It is so much better!

I have to give a hand to this band. After losing its lead singer, Tides of Man was still able to create an awesome instrumental album. If you're a fan of this band or this type of rock, be sure to check out my music blog: http://goo.gl/700Vhv

This is an incredible postrock album; best to come out in a while, and I like that it came from a seasoned band with great chops who did a major 180. The AudioTree session is really good.
