I'd be buying more if I got my regular hours back. Predictably, I've been scaled back a considerable degree.

The closer on this is constructed really, really damn well for a fifteen minute track. Folks will do well to get on this :3
@Observer: I was thinking about that earlier on regarding streaming services. Its convenience kinda means I blast through albums and while that's fantastic, I can't help feeling how music nowadays will be viewed by folks 20-30 years on without the physical format to keep returning to

I've bought a lot less albums since I've started using Spotify and I don't know how I feel about that. Kinda shit, I think.

> Park, if you don't mind I ask, around how old are you? Also, respectful handshake extended.

too old, too cold

i dont mind at all but that information remains classified for a reason. last person i told ended up shish-kebab'd in guatemala

Thanks people, greatly appreciated. The tunes are worth the time as well!



@Arch for a fifteen minute track it's absolutely a stunner. Not an easy feat.

There is so much Fall of Troy worship on this.

Much more spacey I feel, but the comparisons are apt

That vinyl/cd/t-shirt merch combo on their Bandcamp looks mighty tempting...

This stuff rules although I fail to see yet again why this is tagged as prog.

Definitely has some progressive elements to it. I'd give the most attention to the post-influences and that particular mixture, but the title track and something like "We Have to Burn Down this Submarine" are relatively prog-driven I find.
