AOTY'18 Confirmed
[edit] Oh yeah, it still is. Review up for it now the stream is open at NPR. I am incapable of containing my
excitement over this album...

objectively the greatest album ever created if you disagree you're wrong

I don't really get this. It's a well put-together indie-rock album for sure, but...it's forgettable. (Gasp)

The first truly gorgeous album of 2018, so many outright beautiful moments on this 70 minute epic of an indie rock record with lyrics to match.

"Listen: of all the things that you're about to lose, this will be the most painful." So goes the introductory statement, which I'm fairly certain is supposed to pertain to memories or the world as we know it or something. A more manifest meaning however is the hour plus you're about to squander enduring this thing. Laden with tepid aughts-indie triteness, tedious whimpering, dozy dramaturgy. And given their 12-member lineup and orchestration often giving way to an exiguous acoustic, they manage to be both overwrought and impoverished. Typhoon not so much, more like Rainout.

First contact with this band and i have to say I'm quite happy to have stumbled upon this, thanks again Sputnik.
The record is a little long but is so well put together that time passes without you noticing it. And the highs are quite high.

overwhelming melancholic indie folk soundscape that's full of layer of element and intensity but lack of some right harmony and smooth texture / beautifully massive journey and organic powerful epic

Someone of the instrument layering was interesting, but other than that, I found this album to be quiet boring and forgettable.

I feel really bad for the 9 other members that sat twiddling their thumbs for the vast majority of
this record. There's nothing wrong with some well-composed indie rock but all the reasons that I
loved White Lighter are inexplicably absent from this LP.
