    Indeed, on both of Lost Time's pieces, Fox and Millions make good use of non-drum instruments to further their percussive investigations. And although the steadiness of 'Post Encounter Effect' threatens to make it a little tougher to sit through than the more immediate, thrilling 'Telegy/Time Lapse', its implication--a renewal of our relationship with time, wherein we find agency--arguably renders it more satisfying.

    Lost Time is a spiritual statement, executed through but not limited by drum kits, and it works towards revelation.

    Drums dance around the downbeat while acoustic guitars push the piece forward, proving these two can do subtlety, too. [No. 123, p.57]

    Fans of Oneida, or Liturgy, or both, should be familiar with the boundary-pushing aspects of those bands, and will relish a chance to dip into this recording.

    The relaxed, hypnotic nature of the piece [Post Encounter Effect] is a little surprising coming after the ecstatic first side, but it's calming and welcome nonetheless.

    It would have been great to hear the Fox and Millions show without the extra instruments to let the drummers truly shine. Nevertheless, their fury on the A side and their ability to tread the line between hypnotic and sleepy on the flip side creates a joyous, technically astute performance that rewards a patient listener.

    It ain't pretty and it's certainly not accessible, but Lost Time is the kind of challenge that, once you accept, brings out something primal in you.
