invert LYSF with f#a# and we're in total agreement, tide

that's awesome. ;] they're both wonderful albums, no doubt about it, but i think in the end LYSF deserves to be #1 because of
1. "Antennas to Heaven" - track kills;
2. its revolutionary approach - the debut is original as well ofc, but I feel it can still be summed up as a fancy dark ambient record, while the delicate, warm symphonies of LYSF? No predecessors (as far as I know).

So far for me:

2. Lift Your Skinny Fists

3. F#A#

Asunder is one of my favs. If only the drone was shorter it would be a 5 for me

I remember being very fond of slow riot back when I first discovered it, then multiple listens revealed its relative weaknesses and one-dimensionality compared to the albums that preceeded and succeded it



also no, LYSF is not much behind, they're quite close I believe

Is there a Godspeed album without much drone and noise stuff? Because that's the only reason it's impossible for me to 5 this or Skinny...

that's the sole reason you should be 5ing this and not other post-rock albums, tbh

Maybe is because I'm really new into the noise/drone stuff. I've been jamming this records non-stop to see if it grows on me though.

I still find it hilarious that you aren't allowed to give this album a "1." What other albums are like that on Sput? I think Skinny Fists is the same.
