Interesting you don’t vibe much with Boat Pt 2 Sowing, I usually don’t usually go for ambient drone stuff either but that track is the only one here that makes me really feel anything.

This feels like a lot of the same ideas just pursued further.




that's what I wanted with this album, but honestly I don't hear it



sounds like he zeroed in on the bridge of Time is Dancing, said "hey this rules I'll make a full album of it". which is fine but it kind of misses the dynamics that make that such a powerful moment on IFWWW. this is kind of stuck on the same tone, feeling throughout.



I've said my piece and will depart this thread while I amicably can

Yeah I think this is capping out in "decent 3" territory for me.

I just cannot stop listening to this. I’m clearly round the bend.

That first song fucked me up, hopefully the rest does the same

The atmosphere here is unbelievable

Cool. The atmosphere remains but the songs wash over you the first few times you play it then after a few more listens they sink themselves into your psyche.

Life changer.

What did you think of the rest, neeka?

Bumped, was thinking about 5 potential but for now this sits on a 4.5



'Someone in the Doorway' is definitely my favourite, then the opener, then the closer.



'What the Moon Does' is a little underrated perhaps too?

What the Moon Does is pretty good but the only part I love is the last minute...The Defeat is better.
