Seeing them live really is quite the experience. I went twice last year.

Whoa, so this is actually good and 100% the direction they needed to go.

A shame so many wrote it off immediately. It's actually my favorite from them.

I've written them off since All of a Sudden (which I liked well enough) because post-rock just sounds so recycled sometimes. This injects some ingenuity and texture that I'm grateful for. They were in my city in April and I totally ignored it. Now I wish I would've gone!

I need to revisit this. It was okay, just didn't grab me.

I like the fact they distance themselves from the usual post rock tropes to make smth as rich as this. Really cool trip for headphones db.

I need some good headphones asap. I had some buds that were suprisingly good, but they shit out on me and they aren't manufactured anymore so my warranty scored me some garbage replacements.

This is very underrated, and a great new direction for them. Landing Cliffs is amazing.

not saying they weren't in need of a stylistic change but i don't think they really nailed it on here

Yea it could have been executed better here but most of the individual songs here are really solid.

Just adding along with the others saying that I saw them earlier this year and they were pretty stellar. It's something else hearing them perform live.

Yeah can we talk about this quick. Is this good or not. I haven't been a fan of the band for years but the first track was a nice opener.
