Not really getting the 40WS debate, this is so close to WFaD it could have been made 1 year later, not 20 years later. Like there is basically no massive distinction in the sound or approach between the 2 (at least that I'm picking up). Obviously that's a good thing if you like WFaD (which I do).
I find Patrick's approach interesting and unique, it's almost painfully bare bones in that there is basically zero flair (no solos, no mid song switches, there are moelodies but no hooks etc) and the focus is on going as slow and dragged out as possible. It def allows his incredible vocals to shine. It gets a bit one note for me personally but I am digging the bookends and Stations a lot on first couple of listens.
