IS there anyone else here who absolutely adores this album?
I love it so much but I can't put my finger on exactly what it is that draws me to it. The first track "farewell transmission" is just so beautiful.

What do you think of this album /mu/ ?
I like Farewell Transmission a lot but I get bored with the rest of it.
Me. It's one of my favourite albums. The lyricism is fantastic as always with Molina, I really love the production, the sort of sparse echo-y way it sounds it's like you're right there in the room, it's really atmospheric. I love how the songs can be really soft and hypnotic and then crescendo into insanely powerful.

>YOU'RE TALKIN' TO ONE RIGHT NOW
I kinda feel like Farewell Transmission would have worked better as the last track on the record, but either way the whole this is great. John Henry Split My Heart is fantastic.

It could have worked too, but Hold on Magnolia is a perfect closer imo
>Hold on Magnolia, I hear that lonesome whistle whine
>Hold on Magnolia, I think it's almost time...

I like it. I feel like when the two guest vocal tracks come on the album kind of loses some steam tho

1. Ghost tropic
2. Mi sei apparso come un fantasma

it's the back cover if you haven't seen it
I like molina songwriting but I'm not really into lyrics since my first language is not English. he have some good melodies but some classic "hey guys, my poems are good but my music boring".
even that, molina put real felling in his music and he was really into it, which is pretty awesome.
