Aug 7, 2013As a whole, the album has a wonderful density that reveals a new secret with every listen, melodies buried in caverns of reverb and tricky guitar bits that hide in reversed delay.
-
Aug 15, 2013Medicine is at its best on To the Happy Few when it pushes its sound to the point of indulgence, then finds a way to pull everything together.
