"As post-rock benchmark albums go, this one is going to be in the top ten of all time easily, it’s slick, emotive, and leaves you feeling better every single time you listen to it."

I decorate myself with the blood the foes I have crushed before me, then adorn myself in jewelry crafted from their bones. There can only be pride in the valor of conquest. Those unadorned are merely the meek begging for eternal surrender.

The compact disc isn’t going quietly - Chicago Reader

Vinyl has long been the big story in physical media, but CDs are cheaper, quicker to manufacture, and poised for a comeback.
