"I don’t know how it’s possible, but this album is both the blandest and the most sincere of Noel’s entire career. There are tracks like Dead To The World that make me cry every time. Easy Now could have been Oasis in the 2000s. Council Skies feels like a plagiarism… of Noel Gallagher’s High Flyin..."  [+]  Reply

"Absolutely MASSIVE post-rock album. Beautiful, ominous, and completely unforgettable soundscapes painted by God Is An Astronaut. This is hands down my favorite post-rock album, and potentially overall album of the 2000s. Unfortunately overlooked by some, but if you appreciate instrumental albums,..."  [+]  Reply

"Deerhunter always explores a new sound with each release. This time, it feels a lot more baroque pop and somewhat psychedelic. There's probably some influences from Tame Impala's "Lonerism" and Flaming Lips' "The Soft Bulletin." It all feels very Deerhunter nonetheless. There's a lot going on in ..."  [+]  Reply

"Now if our pop music stations played this I might actually listen to the radio more. Underrated artist! Roisin Murphy is awesome! Artist like this should be praised more in America."  Reply

"MetaL MetaL has such a cool sound. The guitar and saxophone play off of each other very well and the lead singer's voice is gorgeous. My favourite track would have to be Oya."  Reply

"Possibly my favourite band of all time. When I heard they were making another album I was a bit worried. What if it's crap? I was happy with their legacy. But not to worry, this is every bit as good s the two albums that preceded it (nothing beats Angel Dust). They didn't miss a beat.."  Reply

"I heard butter and cheese help give you lucid and more vivid dreams. Voltaire also drunk more than a dozen cups of coffee a day to help with his writing. Caffeine causes hallucinations taken in huge amounts apparently. I can't stress the huge part enough, it would take 8+ 250ml Red bulls to get t..."  [+]  Reply
