  1. Drowned In Sound
    90
    At times hypnotic and otherworldly, it's a soothing, unsettling and challenging listen.
  2. Mojo
    80
    Luminous Night reflects the yin-yang duality of a player whose axework has feulled Both Comets On Fire's freakout euphoria and the post-apocaltptic spok of Current 93. [Oct 2009, p.101]

  3. No Ripcord
    80
    Sequenced beautifully to balance lyrical narratives with haunting instrumentals, it’s another Six Organs of Admittance album...but so much more.
  4. Spin
    50
    While his guitar remains ulceric, songs such as 'The Ballad of Charley Harper' stew rather than combust.
