III

I listened to this because my friends slob Japanese chimpo.

The morning of the day I wrote this review (mid-December), I took a picture of the outside of my apartment in the wee hours of the morning. It had a weird tint to it, almost pinkish, with smog being lower than usual.

The whole atmosphere reminded me of this album: sad, mysterious, and oddly beautiful. It starts off with the 13 minute At Last, which is my favorite track off it, with its emotional and intimate atmosphere, then by the end we have the lulling If I Could See You Again, and the frustrated Spirit in My Hair, which was an odd choice, but totally necessary.

In the end we get a picture into the ethereal and a bit surreal, to be honest. A real emotional album that I recommend everyone give a try if they're looking for some slowcore off the beaten path.
