This is probably one of the best albums Ive ever had the pleasure of swimming around in. Its long and involving, luxurious and melodic, creative, inspiring, meaningful, intelligent, humorous, zeitgeisty, political, important and many more things I cant think of now. Ive changed my life a few times since this came out, one of those changes was partially to do with a sentiment which quite possibly was initiated by or atleast helped by this album and the meaning I got from it. There is a great sense of clarity and individuality and defiance whilst still being mature and intelligent in this. Musically, it is supreme, melodics that would reinvigorate the dead cardiovascular-system of a corpse, melodies and lush layer based tapestries of intricate detail and vitalogy. You know that this was made for the maker more than for the listener but the makers ear has a wide and fantastical knowledge as to sustain the listener in minutia. Thank you for the best trip of my life.
