Yeah this is probably a 5 quality-wise I just don't quite have the personal connection to it.

Same here, although I completely get how this 'feels' like a special release as there really isn't anything I can currently compare it to.

I think he edited Mogwai in later :-) if not then I misread

But yeah I need to get on Mogwai too

In fairness I edited in Mogwai after Boney replied lol (wow, I see you at the bottom of that last page, ninja comment ;]), but also ouch for being comparatively inessential anyway. CODY is a great album, but it's basically this-lite

Mogwai calling Sigur Ros plagiarists was the funniest post-rock meme of the 2000's

*instantly dislikes Mogwai*

(well, I like some of their music already, but yeah I’m not having Sigur Ros slander)



Struggled to get into some of the Unwound I’ve heard, not actually checked Codeine.

I have listened to a few 100% Slint rip off albums. But I forgot all of them.

Codeine? Similar to this?
'The White Birch' is slowcore extreme and is absolutely nothing like this. Am I missing something?
I kind of understand the Mogwai & Unwound comparisons, though.

Well I'm here to piss off Ghandi and just want to say I'm getting lots of Pixies vibes this time around (I can do this all day). Album is pretty flooring, once you insist on the mood of it.
