"Absolutely underrated, this one. Not to mention the very ill-deserved statement from that one critic at the time - "What is this shit?". This album is anything but that.

"I’ve been a huge Deafheaven guy since they blew me away with ‘Sunbather’ some 8 years post & through ‘New Bermuda’ and ‘Ordinary Corrupt..” they have been a staple of my regular musical diet.

"Great lost psychedelic. Beautiful arrangements with string overdubs a la "Forever Changes" and strongly influenced by it. You can clearly hear these influences in "A Horn Playing On My Thin Wall", "Look At The Wind", "Look To The Sun" and "Didn't" among others. In other respects it draws from jaz..."  [+]  Reply
