Aug 14, 2016It's a slow, subtle and contemplative album, the latter already guessable from its title, and what isn't essentially an overwhelming listen, is by the end at least a satisfying and re-listenable one. Seldom Seen Kid and Cast of Thousands may be the quicker-to-visit ones.

Mar 29, 2014This is a very mediocre release that smothers itself under its own pretense. Yes, there are a few good tracks but it tries too hard to be innovative and ultimately comes across as feeling quite shallow.

MagnetApr 18, 2014The Take Off is not all that remarkable the first few times around, but it nonetheless hints at rewarding repeat visits. [No. 108, p.55]
