China was a neat
Kinda restrained album after the maniacal The Seer. A bit more nuanced and patient album but I still prefer the predecessor to this. Favorite tracks are Oxygen and Bring The Sun / Toussaint L'Ouverture. This sounds so much better and good in their live renditions though.

One of those bands that always had and probably will never lose their musical genius and vision of how sound moves through your emotions.

Great album to drone of to, very patient and hypnotic record. I have a feelings of being elevated when I listen to this, I consider that to be a great achievement in art.

Not as haunting as The Seer, but still a great listen that will set your hair on end.

This is the closest thing to metal, that is not metal music.

I enjoyed the variety of sounds here. The Seer was murderous, bleak and hopeless, but this goes from one abstract tone to another. At best it feels like somebody's drilling your head or something. It's both disturbing and strangely intriguing at the same time, but none less satisfying and awesome.

Most likely the other way around.
