Don't think so, man. Maybe if I get really tired of this one someday, but my Lost fanboyism is rather strong lately.

Weirdo. The ending to that show was an abortion, admit it.

Nah, I personally enjoyed the direction they took with the ending.

If anything, I'd argue the show's weakness was that it delved too much into information about the Others / Dharma, etc.

I really tried to enjoy this... Is there something I'm missing?

Not awful, just I didn't particularly enjoy it.

That's probably cause your review sold me on this so much I had too high of expectations. Sweet review by the way.

Haha, thanks man! This album's a personal one for me, so my review is expressing that over anything else. Definitely not saying it's an experience tons of people will have, or anything like that.

Sounds like Faraquet and Carving Desert Canyons had a love child

I know why I didn't like this now.



It's way more math rock than post rock. Way, way more math rock - great review but maybe mention that somewhere?

omaha everything you like sounds like something i would like [3]

I think I have gotten more stuff I ended up really liking that I had never heard of from Omaha than any other staff/contributor on the site.

And for that, I thank you.

I'll see what I can do JS, thanks for the tip.

Ecnalzen, that comment means more to me than one would probably think. I'm glad you've been satisfied with what I bring to the site-- must mean I'm doing something good here, right?

I have a couple more reviews scheduled in the next couple weeks, so hopefully you'll find those records similarly alluring.

I hate how indifferent I am towards this album. It feels like something I could absolutely fall in love with, but at the end of the day it just falls frustratingly short somehow. I really want to love this but just can't.

And it's elusive-- I likely wouldn't feel the same way about it if I hadn't discovered it when I did. Everything just clicked, which kind of defies this whole "let's slap a rating on the album and be done with it!" mindset I had for awhile.

My opinions on music change constantly-- I'll be damned if I can pin all these albums to the most precise tenth decimal place.

No problem! I am enticed by the alluring-ness of said reviews and look forward to all the possibilities of musical awesomeness in my ears. I listened to some of this last night, and it was on the pretty great side.

On a slightly unrelated note, Omaha, JIZUE HAS A NEW ALBUM COMING OUT TOMORROW, and I may or may not be really excited about it. Would that possibly be one of your scheduled reviews?

I've tried to get into Enemies before and couldn't but I'm a few tracks into this and actually digging it a lot.



I've also tried getting into Jizue before and it didn't really strike my fancy but I'll check their new one out too.



btw, LITE also released a new album two days back. Some good mathy jams on there.
