    Truly a work of art. Russian Circles have created an epic journey from start to finish, seamlessly tying each track together in a macabre 43 and a half minute trip. Melody and pure skill combine blissfully into a crushing masterpiece. For fans of: ISIS, Mogwai, Sigur Ros, Cult Of Luna, Justin K. Broadrick's work (Godflesh and Jesu) and anything else melodic and atmospheric yet heavy too.

    The bottom line is that this diversity is not a lack of focus, but growth and development that make the band stand out from the pack, making the effort to spin this a few times yield very big rewards.

    Post-rock's forte is letting instruments speak for vocals. Russian Circles speak articulately, but could stand to roar a bit.

    As subversive as Russian Circles can be structurally, sonically, Station is less distinct than "Enter."
