in terms of mono

They're extremely boring and do nothing more than perpetuate post-rock's worst cliches.

LYSF is unbelievable.



LYSF>Slow Riot>F# A#>Yanqui



LYSF is a 5, not a 2. It's where their most epic climaxes and most intense arrangements mix, it's also their most adventurous.

Basically the inverse of that.

Shit, I know you do know your stuff for the most part but you need to listen to LYSF. Everything that I love about adventure and emotional atmosphere is achieved on that album. The coney island monologue, with an emotional tone that is only further supported by the arrangements that follow it, the climax in "Static", the power behind "Antennas to Heaven". Their perfect album.

"The coney island monologue"
the only reason it's not a 1.5, tbh.
"How old are you again? I seem to have forgotten"
har har.


also i listened to lysf like ten times so i don't think i'll like it, since my rating was originally a 2.5

I mean this album is so god damn forgettable and it's such a haphazard mish-mash I can't even believe I had it at a 3 at one point.
