Album is tite. Had it on my phone for like the last 3 years and kept telling myself I'd get around to it.

I'm completely new to this band. I'm glad I checked this album out. I loved the colourful album cover and needed to try it.

I love all those psychedelic sounds and the ambient influences.



It can be claustrophobic sometimes but it has nice atmospheres.

For many months already I'm lazy when it comes to discovering new bands and albums, but finally I found some time for this album. It was worth it.

it's an album where it's always nice to come back to it. I really like all songs on it, I really feel the great atmosphere and it takes me to several different imaginary places in my mind.



I don't know which album of them I should check out next, this is my first album of them and I'd like another with strong atmospheres.

Peace Sword is most similar to this, Soft Bulletin and Yoshimi are classics and their most accessible

Thank you, I'll try Peace Sword soon. Oh. I thought The Terror was very accessible to me, I immediately loved the electronic sounds on most of the songs there and the thick atmosphere so it was kind of easy for me to get into it, maybe I try their classics too.

If it's thick atmosphere you want I recommend the abridged version of 7 Skies H3, they recorded it a bit before this and it's very much in the same spirit.

7SH3 slaps but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for a new fan, idk it's very secular and a bit dense maybe. it's a fantastic record though



Heady Fwends is underrated btw

the more I think about it, the more I realize these guys were at the top of their game from 2009-2014

90s Lips is forever unbeatable but yeah that era is great as well, especially considering how long they'd been at it at the time

Hard to believe this album is getting old already.

doubt the Lips will ever top it.

I like bands that are brave enough to put the best track(s) near the end of the album like Turning Violent is here.
