    D3 already made Ocean Songs and Horse Stories. If you want to hear them again, go listen to them! Why retread the same ground? Cinder is excellent in its own way.

  1. It's Dirty Three as they've always been, testing their limits, but still producing some of the prettiest and most artful music around.
  2. It would be a lie to say some of Cinder doesn't seem ramshackle. You can tell the difference between a song carefully arranged and one in which the band's three members appear to be improvising in the studio.
  3. This is the Dirty Three as you have never heard them before.
