*yawn* Remove that extra something you've given Thin Air simply for being a Hammill, bare it down just to Hammill's solo output, and you get my grade. It's not final statistic, though. There's still much more music to come. And please don't forgot to respect one's musical opinion.

It's enjoyable, yet downright awful compared to ( ).

Actually, I lie.
Agaetis Byrjun is not enjoyable. It is over-saturated ambient-post, giving total headaches.

Might have to listen to ( ) then. I should really like that if you're right.

I am not entitled to explain the phenomenon by which Agaetis Byrjun is so popularly appreciated. ( ) doesn't change stripes drammatically, but it makes it all worthwhile. Brace for some tearful nordic-cold melancholia, though.

I don't understand why you play only two Aranis tracks either.

It was late at night and I was tired. I'll play that whole album today, hopefully. The first is a lot better than the second, I think.

| I think the epic track is at once forced and a tad cliche in some respects (we can start with the title). But "Late Night Salvation" is absolutely killer- a fantastic piece in every respect and I can't wait to hear it again.
And on another note, if you search for "IZZ River" here, the search engine asks if you actually meant "jizz river."
