"melting sun is better and more substantial but both are 4s"





Pretty much, they don't really sound much alike either way.

Album Rating: 4.0

true but both could technically be considered shoegaze albums, on extreme ends ofc. but yeah @dbizzles I should look up more of their lyrics I def get that feel

Album Rating: 4.0 | Sound Off

Both came out in the same year and marked the full dive into sunny shoegaze/post rock by blackgaze bands that have had a strong connection due to Neige's collaboration, it's only logical to compare them. I mean, this doesn't sound like Kodama either way and still they are compared since they are by the same band. It's the same principle

Bumping this to a 3.5, sure it's kinda samey but I can't resist that wonderful dreamy gaze sound

nice bump. this is a beaut

Yeah this puts me in the best mood. Never realized until now that Neil from Slowdive is on Away, what an amazing song!

Album Rating: 3.5

That's probably the weakest here imo ironically.

Recently checked out the bonus track Into the Waves and really dig it, I get why it didn't make the album though.

I'm not really a fan, tbh. Feels super plain.

Album Rating: 3.5

No more plain than most of what's here really

Album Rating: 4.0

I think overall most of the songs here are on par with each other although I do have a few highlights. But in general the whole album has a really nice atmosphere which just makes you feel fuzzy inside (at least for me)

Album Rating: 4.0

Very blissful album. Almost as good as Souvenirs. Other three are best tho.

I disagree. That song particularly sounds like they just had a leftover b-side that they let a friend sing on.

Souvenirs destroys this. Haven't heard Ecailles or Voyages yet but that one will almost certainly remain my favorite.

Album Rating: 4.0

Ecailles is one of my all time favorites, enjoy Boney. It's probably their most abstract and layered.

Album Rating: 4.0

Ecailles is fantastic. Voyages is pretty good.

Album Rating: 3.5

Gonna check Ecailles soon for sure. Souvenirs has been steadily growing on me for the last couple weeks until last night I listened to it loud in the dark and something about it just hit super hard, I tell you I was almost ready to 5 the thing. Hopefully it continues to hit me and that wasn't just a random fluke.

Oh man, just wait until you hear the title songs, Ecailles Pt I & II.
