Sorry gang but what the actual fuck is this. It's just...not good. You can see the potential that he'd unleash in OFFLINE! and other stuff, but it's far worse than anything under the DeVon Hendryx name and any of his later projects. This is maybe worse than Black Ben Carson, even. I might just need to listen more, but it's just not great to me.

I am astounded. It doesn't overstay its welcome, ... read more
While Echoes of Silence is still an incredibly done album, I do find it to be the most forgettable out of the trilogy. It's not as well produced as House of Balloons, and it's not as ambitious as Thursday, and its influences are less clear. I do enjoy the noisier aspects to this, but it really just feels out of place in the Trilogy. While it does close it off well, I do think that Echoes of Silence reaches its full potential. The trip hop aspects are so cool. Abel's voice is ... read more
