Congrats on the feature [2] This is growing on me, one of the more addicting albums of the year for me alongside Tame Impala's Currents and Ghost's Meliora.

@Myth: I guess my AOTY is The Congregation, but it's not like I'm shouting it out from the rooftops you know. Underwhelming year

Congregation could really be up there as AOTY. Thing is, as you said, nothing to shout THIS IS MAFAKRS, AH FOUND IT!



Thanks all for your kind words, truth is I was more than excited for being featured. I hoped they would pick it. Is it necessary that someone's proofread your review if you want it to be featured? I remember someone complaining that they didn't chose his review and another user told him ''Well, it's your second one, it's not that good and none has proofread it. What do you expect.'' It's also my first review to be read beforehands, so I've come to believe this.

It just has to be competently written with little to no errors and be released within the week to be featured.

This album is taking itself too seriously. It's a perfectly constructed version of what they wanted to construct, but they've made the mistake of stripping back their sound a little bit too far.



Solid, but doesn't blow my mind with every listen like ADHD, SONGS and SLS all did.

Checked them out on youtube. They sound like a combination of night session, REM t/t. Ambient electronic stuff

They've stripped away everything excessive and unnecessary, channeling less Dream Theater and more of themselves. Best album since Second Life Syndrome.

Underflow you keep on bringing DT up, but honestly I think they've rarely sounded like DT. They've always had a focus on atmosphere, and if you were going to bring a band name up it would be porcupine tree

The songs on them self are great, but put together like on this album, it doesn't work as that great.. I still really like this album, but I think that Klone with their newest album showed how you can drop the metal elements from your progressive music and still sound in some sections "heavy".. well, atleast this album is better than SONGS

I'd buy this for "Found" alone, but I was pleasantly entertained with the rest of the album, and that artwork is pretty.



If I were to introduce a non-prog fan or first-time Riverside listener to the band, it would be with this album.

Misho87, thanks for sharing info about the new Klone album. Might be what I wanted.



Also, I now want to listen to the new Foals.

The Dream Theater reference is more of a mindset than an actual aesthetic. Anno Domini High Definition is practically defined by that mindset. There's less focus on actual songwriting and more focus on instrumental wizardry and just being "heavy."
