I shamefully admit to not spending near enough time with this album because I believe it should be digested without distraction, and as a whole, and I oftentimes don't have these exact specifications fulfilled. BUT I am coming back around - in anticipation of "Plastic House" - and this really is best-of-the-oeuvre caliber material.

One of Kayo Dot's stronger albums. A great mixture of their more accessible yet still jazzy and ethereal sound but with several longer passages of more abstract music. There's a lot going on here, and it's surprisingly more focused than many KD albums, despite the 100 minute runtime. One of the finest albums of the last few years, IMO.

IMO, this is less boring than most Kayo Dot. There's less Toby Driver wanking his limp, desultory vocals all over and less empty space in the instrumentals.

album is too long, especially songs 7 or 10 + minutes becoming boring after a while...it's a big drawback to this album...and yes it is a bit overrated.

Maybe most people who love this album don't care for such imbecilic things as year-end lists.

So why aren't more people talking about the album of the year? Almost no one has this on their lists and it's making me sad.

Why is the incorrect spelling of Zlida Caosigi (To Water the Earth) the official track for this page? I understand it's the correct pronunciation of the words, and apparently it's also the mispelling present in a download link that I found when I queried it using DDG but the proper track name is as it's listed and it has more plays. I wanted to fix it when I came across this. :b

@itconsumesme everytime I take a look at it, the cover makes me think of the back of a woman but, from the artwork inside the record, I can say it's something more abstract than that

And the last minutes are still those musical moments I'm searching for every second of my life. For me it's like the feeling of an extremely conscious lucid dream without the pressure of the time to end although it will, eventually. The true perfection.

Listening for the fourth consecutive day now, this is an excellent album. One of the best of the year so far, if not THE best.

This may actually be better than Choirs of the Eye! The absolute contender for AOTY.
