First time hearing either of these tracks. Thought Innerbloom was pretty pleasant but I agree with Skinny that it might be a bit too long for the number of great moments it has. I wasn't all that impressed with Static God though so I'm going with Innerbloom. _________________ And it's hard to be a human being. And it's harder as anything else.

Not massively enamoured with either choice. 'Innerbloom' has some cool elements, but I'm not convinced that putting them together the way it does, especially in its most predictable and maximalist moments, actually benefits it. It didn't do anything to maintain my interest over ten minutes, and if I heard it in a club it wouldn't have me rushing towards the dancefloor. 'The Static God' is basically The Buzzcocks' 'Everybody's Happy Nowadays', except without charm or a chorus, and it features a particularly irritating vocal performance. That said, despite my misgivings, it gets my vote on the basis that it has a more distinctive personality.
This. I like the Oh Sees but Orcs has always been an annoying transitional record between the enigmatic psych garage rock of Mutilator and Floating Coffins to the more personality leaden heavy psych influence of Face Stabber (squeaky toy drums anyone?) Besides, best Oh Sees is the lo-fi meth era, Sucks Blood/Cool Death of The Island Raiders/Thee Hounds of Foggy Notion
