I think it's been a couple years since I listened to a sotl album all the way through. Will have to dig in over the next couple weeks.

Artificial Pine Arch Song is perhaps the best thing they've done.

Agreed. 'Gravitational Pull...' took me a while to get into because it is so raw and indistinct at times. After a while 'Cantus II' hit me hard (that moment around 13:20 when the repeated B comes in on the piano: so much emotional weight there) and the rest of the album eventually followed.

Refinement has been the peak for me. Tired Sounds being second. I haven't listened all that much to their earlier stuff yet even though I have it all.

 

Anxiously awaiting the new album though. I saw them back in May 2008 with two front row tickets given to me by a friend on Twoism, that was pretty awesome!

The ending strings towards the end of Requiem of Dying Mothers part 2 simply kills me. One of the best "moments" in any of their music.

Nope :cerious: .

 

+1 for Tippy's Demise; may be my favorite piece of theirs.
