Yeah, agreed with Yak. Filth was my first but this was the first one I really took to. It's so varied, so you'll definitely find something.

Damn, all four epics on here are masterpieces. Especially Helpless Child. But as a whole this is quite the masterpiece. Gira is a genius.

Helpless Child is should be the literal how-to handbook for post rock it was that good. Gives Untitled 8 by Sigur Ros a run for it's money for me.

Didn't you only hear this today Mongi?

Album Rating: 4.5

I mean it's the correct rating, but it took at least10 listens to really hear everything that's going on.

Yea but I know this will grow to be one of my favorite albums ever. There's wasn't a moment I disliked and I'll be listening to Helpless Child all day haha

Album Rating: 4.5

Fair play. This just gets better and better, if you're 4.5ing now you'll def 5 later on.

I've already heard that song alone like three times today I can't get enough. Such a deep song and I can't quite place my finger on whether or not it's about an unhealthy attachment or abandonment it's brilliant.

Album Rating: 4.5

I've always thought the former

The live version of helpless Child on Swans Are Dead might actually be stronger than the studio version. Either way, one of the greatest songs.
