Only on the reviews homepage. You'll see on this page, it's a 93 percent.

Not really. They are presented with a lot of sound effects and sound just like music, with basically indecipherable lyrics. And with a total of maybe 10 percent of the album being vocals, there isn't enough to judge off of.

I mean I'm by no means a seasoned veteran of the genre. Those are among the handful of bands "like" Mogwai that I know, hence why I use them as examples. You'd definitely know better how to RIYL this record than I would, haha.

I vehemently respect your opinion and still love this record and want to sleep with it every night. Haha <3

Haha, dude. Crescendo-core. I WISH I thought of that while writing the review.

Have you gotten to hear the Rano Pano 7'' b-side "Hasenheide"? I've only heard the Amazon sample, but it sounds (to me) better than most of the album tracks.

I haven't but it sounds intriguing.

Haha yeah, luckily that probably won't be a problem on the new site.
