Honestly, the best post-rock album of all time. A masterpiece.

Top ten, fucking love it. Very close between it, Spiderland, and Winter Hymn Country Hymn Secret Hymn for my favorite post-rock album.

Fantastic album. My only gripe is that it peaks too early. All 4 tracks are great but to me Storm seems to blow the other 3 songs out of the water.
Still, one near-perfect composition and three great ones is pretty damn good in my eyes.

Yes! Did you get to see them recently?
I saw them at a church a couple years back when they reunited. Such a magnificent performance. Plus they had one of the coolest projectionists I've ever seen doing visuals.

In October, where I also saw NMH, Purity Ring, Animal Collective, Daniel Johnston, Bosnian Rainbows, and others.
When I went they had a screen with really atmospheric stuff going on it. Hard to describe, but it was transfixing. Well, the music was transfixing, but the visuals accompanying it made it even better.
