Firstly, how did they get the rights to do a Come Together cover lmao
Compared to their first album this one drops a bit of the raw energy and noise for more mature songwriting and more fleshed out ideas, which has its positives and negatives. I think so much of my love for Snõõper’s first album was driven by their insane energy, which drops a bit on this album. Specifically the vocals feel more flat and the guitars not quite as sharp. However the songs feel a lot more ... read more
A solid group of leftovers from the Rose Main Reading Room sessions. I still feel like they are at their best with songs that have a bit more tempo and energy as opposed to their slower, more indie folk inspired songs. Standouts for me were Venus in Nadir, Seek and Destroy, and Believer. Specifically the lush instrumentation and overall instrument mix on Believer was great.

It sounds like a jam band doing a rendition of something off of Miles Davis's Get Up With It. Honestly the rest of the tracks blend together a bit for me but the highs on this album are incredibly high. Part 2 of the trilogy on the back end, the fifth track, I also enjoy a fair bit due to its progression. The sax playing is otherworldly throughout the album. Definitely ... read more
