  1. This is a wonderful, intoxicatingly special album that deserves to be cherished, and played and played.
  2. It's still epic – and a bit grandiose at times - but in a charmingly human and believable way.
  3. If GY!BE is the Tolstoy of the Constellation label, DMST has to be its Chekhov.

    Overall... the mood remains one of pleasant inconsequence. [Apr 2007, p.94]

    any one of 5 of 8 tracks on this album would have made a lesser bands career. these songs achieve coherance like thoughts amongst conjoined siblings who love each other. in other words, forking awesome! Expand

    Some of the band's best work, lots of intricacy and subtlety that mustn't be missed! This will be in the top five of the year for me for sure. They're a very fun band to see live too so if you get a chance, GO! Expand

    5.5 - If this was my first album to hear of DMST I would have no interest in seeking out anything else. I would put them down as lacking talent in the melody department. Each album up to now was better than the last. This is the first step backwards. It is simply lacking good melodies. There are some nice crisp guitar sounds on a couple of tracks, but the brass and strings are so muted that they are practically irrelevant. Obviously they were trying to do something different than "Winter Hymn" and that is to be applauded but there is very little here that makes excites me like their previous stuff. I have listened to this album 5 times. Expand
