Album Rating: 4.5

It's really ironically a shame the first 2 tracks are so good because I now want an EP/LP of songs similar to Aftermath.

This might be a stretch, but check The Joy Formidable. Female fronted rock band with a lot of electronic textures and shit. I think their album The Big Roar is a modern classic.

Album Rating: 4.5

Oh wow I completely forgot about the Joy Formidable. They fell so far form their debut.

Ugh I know, debut was magic and I dunno what the hell happened afterwards.

Truly tragic with joy formidable, yes, the lead vocalists have that same ooummfphh.

A flood of Light is amazing.

I would insta-5 an album of Aftermaths

"the lead vocalists have that same ooummfphh"

Agreed both are hot

One track mind bloc, as per usual

I was merely responding to the young man's comment

Older than you, Bloc.

But yea, you're right. But not only that.

I go by Sputnik age, not human age

Guess we both be children then.

Damn, I should have said "relative" Sputnik age

Fuck, Risen is so good. I love it more every time I listen to it.

Jammed this again today, still rules

Album Rating: 4.5

I'm settling on a 4 for now. I waited so long to rate it because I thought it might hit a 4.5, but it's just not quite there. I will say, it's my favorite album I've heard so far this year.

Album Rating: 4.0

I really like this album but hardly ever feel the need to listen to it, strange.

Listen to the closer on repeat until it's all you care about.

Album Rating: 4.0

I feel this album is greater than the sum of its parts, there are stand out tracks ('The Hollow Hour' & 'A Flood of Light' do it for me especially) but the way it flows is impeccable. Bizarre that songs as different as Aftermath & Rituals work together, that gap-less transition still floors me every time.



The production on this is outstanding as well considering all the different styles they traverse.

Album Rating: 4.5

Yeah, the production is really crazy, because it stays consistent in that every song sounds like it belongs together even when the genres vary wildly. I do think there are standout tracks, but it definitely works best as a cohesive whole.
