That track is kinda pointless yeah, but I don't mind it at all.

I've never heard that about pt 1 before. Usually it's pt 3 people gripe about.

Pt 3 is a cool kinda ambient track. Pt 1 is amateurish noodling around

1 is no worse than the rest of the album methinks, but I also don't tend to pick that song series apart. I take it as a whole with Our Fortress Has Burned to the Ground as well.

tho 3 is my least fave of them

The only cool part of pt 1 is when it starts to fade into pt 2

Frankly, never had a problem with it. If one of them feels aimless to me it would be 3 but that may be partially caused by me not being into ambient.

Just relistened to Pt. 1 and it's a cool piece. Honestly no clue what would make it any more amateurish or noodly than any other track on the album.

Because it's the only one that sounds like semi-improv guitar doodling. The rest of the leads on this album are pretty concise

Good album but it really is a significant drop from all their other releases. Nothing really that transcendent here. Dark Matter Gods does slap pretty hard though.

Not a bad album by any means, but a shockingly tepid note to go out on after caving my head in with every release prior

It's different and that's great. Each of their records has its own aura, this one feels like a vast field of ruins.

One of the saddest cancellings of all time. If only people had known John was just ahead of the curve
