"Eh beyond and debut are clearly and far behind everything that came after them imo."
They are just different, to me it depends, Vertikal is one of my least favorites and still great

I do realize I'm an outlier as being one of the only ones around here to champion EK over all but three of their albums

Providing Salvation & SATH are two of the three, it doesn't seem too outlandish to suggest such a thing

“Hate when these guys peddle to lowest common denominator post-rock sounds”
That part was so fresh back in 2008, I feel bad for the people who don’t recognize such things cuz of loss of context and narrow view because of the reach of influence it had since that now people would think it’s nothing special. How lame.

lowest common denominator post-rock is explosions in the sky's turd crescendos and noodling

hard [2] to both those Wolfe posts, insane considering that specific moment derivative when it contains the most dextrous shifts of pacing they'd pulled off at this point in their career (outside of maybe Finland). doesn't sit at all like a trad CoL crescendo - the way they pull that lead in and out of focus while the song rolls on was such a departure from their usual more-over-more m.o.
if there's one section here I could stand seeing accused of pandering to the post rock trends of the time, it's the linear build at the end of the closer (and even idgaf because they nail that moment)

Don’t have much to reference since i don’t jam that kind of stuff, at least not since my younger years. But yeah explosions in the sky is what comes to mind. Cheesy. But I’ll give ‘er another listen, i probably was having a bad day when i posted that

well fuckin said Johnny I love it, and so true. yeah man everyone back then would point this part out and reference the song as the best because of it.

glad to see norma's attempt at ripping on literally the best and (arguably) most innovative part of this entire album got shot down in flames, lol
Ghost Trail in general remains a career highlight
