11.13.12 | Every single one of these I find better than Godspeed, EITS, Talk Talk,... |
bakkermaarten007
11.13.12 | Not to mention they're depressing, which is good. |
minty901
11.13.12 | not heard 1. 2 is great but not best. cant get through first track of 3 because the off-beat drumming irks me. |
bakkermaarten007
11.13.12 | It makes me feel so desolate that first track of 3. But judging by your ratings you like the more bombastic bands e.i. eits, twdy and others. So you might not like 1, it's a patient (but very rewarding) listen. |

11.13.12 | I get so many compliments these past few days, thanks hep =) |

Finally yet another listener =) . It's my favourite post-rock album and so so unique.And the best part is it gets better and better with every listen. |
minty901
11.13.12 | years of rice and salt are a bright, summery band kind of like a happier explosions in the sky but with strings and brass. like your hand in mind crossed with the first movement of storm. really, really nice listen. get it on the futurerecordings bandcamp. |
minty901
11.13.12 | does 1 ever crescendo/climax or is it always soft? |
bakkermaarten007
11.13.12 | Not really, but the effect it has on me is greater than with most post-rock climaxes.

My review might help. |
minty901
11.13.12 | cheers. still going through itunes previews and it kind of has a country/folky vibe in places, which is interesting. |
minty901
11.13.12 | just read your review and i see you made the same observation about folk elements. good review. ill pick it up. anyone heard of the candlepark stars? might give them a go soon. sounds like quite subdued, digestible post-rock. like the lighter side of explosions in the sky. |
bakkermaarten007
11.13.12 | Yeah, it has. The second track is my favourite of the album,or like some user on last.fm said "the sound of my soul slowly wilting" =) |
bakkermaarten007
11.13.12 | Yeah I heard them, they are quite dreamy, been on my wish list for a while too. |
Keyblade

11.13.12 | 2 is good but there's nothing special about 1 & 3.
Needs the Seven Mile Journey and The Evpatoria Report. |

11.13.12 | bark psychosis duh |
bakkermaarten007
11.13.12 | "Sigur Ros because they're not depressive, dull and generic like most (all?) of post-rock bands."
I understand, your review on that other website was hilarious btw. So you like uplifting post-rock with vocals? Check out Immanu El. |

11.13.12 | "2 is good but there's nothing special about 1 & 3."
I could comprehend that you don't like it, but nothing special? Ah c'mon.... |
Ethics
11.13.12 | 2 is nowhere near talk talk or godspeed's level... |
Ethics
