What a trip.

It's alright.

Mostly uninteresting and repetitive. It had a lot of potential, but they squander it by essentially playing the same song over and over again, save for a few great tracks. It's also extremely frontloaded, with Anyone Can Play Guitar being the final good song on the album (and it's in the first half).

Eh. Kind of boring, not anything essential.

Easily his most inconsistent album. It's not nearly as packed to the brim with standouts as his first two were, but it has two of the greatest songs he's ever made: Safety! and Thief! Both are over 10 minutes long, something he's never done before, and both are absolutely beautiful. Safety! has some gorgeous melodies and an awesome heavier midsection, but Thief! is the real cream of the crop for me. This track is almost too good to be true.

This feels like Acloudyskye's answer to Porter Robinson's Nurture, with A Place Where Mountains Hide being his Worlds equivalent, and my opinions on it also parallel that album. I think it's more fleshed out and creative than his debut and maybe even objectively better, but I like it a little bit less because the best tracks aren't quite as good. This is basically an exact parallel of my opinions on Worlds and Nurture, plus the two artists are pretty stylistically similar as well.

Such a lush and detailed album, possibly his most cohesive and streamlined yet. It can be a bit samey sometimes, but that doesn't really bother me.

Wildly overrated, but it does have some very nice atmosphere and I will acknowledge that it was very influential for its time. Plus, I absolutely love Heliosphan and We Are The Music Makers, but in my opinion, the sequel blows it out of the water.
