I have to give this one another listen. Hasn't clicked with me yet, but I can tell there's something there. Also seems to be appreciated by the more highbrow listeners on this site (and I don't mean that in any perjorative sense) which definitely makes me want to try and appreciate it.
I do like Sea Song, that's pretty nice, but it's the most accessible song here, right? Any tips for an entry point into this would be appreciated.

"Alifib" was the breakthrough for me. The bass work is stunning, and Wyatt's child-like singing laid over top is pretty stirring. Turn down the lights and give it another try. Or go for a night ride on your bike. Probably my favorite way to take in music.
