    Nothing like Sigur Ros. Should not be a canidate for comparison.

    Boring, unoriginal and a complete waste of time. Probably the most uninspired album of all time. Worst post-rock album i've ever heard. The blandness of this album is unequalled. I can't believe how some critics have dressed this crap up. Such a lack of feeling and imagination. I actually despise this album.

  1. This isn't an edgy, experimental record. It instead explores human nature through conventional tonality and flow, delicately combining melancholy, detachment, and exhilaration.
  2. Not only the best Album Leaf album to date but one of the best albums of the year.

    The melancholia lacks distinguishing marks. [#64, p.80]
