THE EARTH IS NOT A COLD DEAD PLACE

This is an album of pure genius and beauty. Unlike the cold barren feel GYBE! often leaves, this is actually quite optomistic and completly instrumental. For those of you who get bored with prog after the late 70s (and tendency towards pop), post rock is a welcoming change back to epic songs and unique song structures. I would venture to say this is a tad better than GYBE! music and is a good starting point for those new to the post rock sound of the mid 90s on. The amount of sound they create out of 4 instruments is shocking and rivals any four peice band anywhere.
