obviously

i love the parts where the vocals suddenly pierce through the music, especially on the first side on the LP

Seems great so far, The rainbow and I believe in you being highlights after 2 listens. Moments of greatness are intermittent, subtlety and a kind of melodic release here and there seems the choice of weapon (Quiet/loud dynamic as well obviously). Those vocals are pretty amazing as well, crushing at some parts.

New Grass may have the most unbelieveably amazing riff I have ever heard.
