Aug 24, 2020my favorite of 2020 so far, potentially even better than my favorites from last year as well

Apr 28, 2021Absolutely fantastic. Makes me feel nostalgic for somebody else's life. While listening to this I think a lot about my life and my future. It is a very calming but at the same time melancholic experience. The only album I can think of that makes me feel anything close to this is Frank Ocean's Blonde. Best album of 2020.

Aug 28, 2020uma experiência única!
os 44 minutos e 44 segundos dizem a que veio: uma longa e prazerosa aventura pelas memórias e reflexões do autor. a musicalidade é extremamente agradável, desde suas melodias no violão, a voz, até a junção dos outros instrumentos. um dos melhores de 2020. -
Oct 6, 2020I would say surprisingly good, but Phil never really disappoints. Check out the music video!

Nov 20, 2021Another astonishing release by Phil under the microphones moniker. Complied into one 40min song.
-
Mar 3, 2021Incredibly boring and self-indulgent. Reminds me of a slate-gray-sky day in conformity-obsessed Olympia.

Aug 14, 2020Elverum has been recording the same song since he was a teenager in the mid-1990s, making tapes late into the night after his shift at the record store. Microphones in 2020 might be his apex.

UncutAug 13, 2020Sometimes diaristic, sometimes philosophical, it's a long litany of past memories and formative moments that, while demanding patience, gradually inches its way to somewhere profound. [Oct 2020, p.34]

Aug 7, 2020Time has only made Elverum's music more transcendent, and anyone who loves the Microphones or Mount Eerie will find the album's fresh yet timeless perspective on it a fascinating and moving listen.
