This is nowhere near the level of lysf or F#A#, probably tied for my least favorite Godspeed release but still an upper 4 because this band is godly

Don't really see why this is held in less regard. This is overall more consistent in it's songwriting, having little samples and being so direct always gives the song direction while Skinny Fists falters in parts with poor build up/pay offs however the highs on that are higher than this.

I'd argue otherwise. This album falters BECAUSE it's so direct, focused, and structured. It lacks the natural space made in the meandering nature or their first 3 projects. They feel more like a post rock band on this album and less like a force of nature.

I prefer this to LYSF, haven't heard them in a long, long time though. This cuts out a lot of the meandering.

i'd say f#a# did a much better job at that than lysf

loved listening to this while climbing, added to a unique atmosphere to the mountains. Now listening to it again in a calm moment I feel that the quantity of drone is a bit overwhelming

I think first and last track of asunder are some of the most epic Godspeed moments. Yes, in my morbid fantasy I wish the two middle tracks of asunder were fused in a single 10 minutes long song, and the album would become a long EP

I wouldn't want that at all but personal taste. I wish the first track was better written, it would be a 4.5 for me then.
