You'd think someone with my hairline wouldn't want to give the world any more spam but here I am spamming both AOTY and here with these short reviews

Gud album though

There are individual elements of this that I really love, the way the instruments seems to show up for a few measures at a time before being supplanted by something else, the gentle new-age oddness, the contradictory sparse lushness of it, rn it's feeling like something I should come back to a few times before making a judgement

Dad - I liked this straight away as it’s very much my thing, but I guess in reality this album is a grower

Nice one Doof! I'm digging these little reviews, keep 'em coming.
I've been shilling Mills for a while, glad to see him finally getting his due.

Thanks Boney, I'll put 'em up every now and again - esp if I think something isn’t getting a review here.
In this case no one had even loaded the album onto the site ;)

Keep the reviews coming, Doof - not only is the writing good but they tend to be for albums which are my thing but I'm somehow bypassing. This was very enjoyable on first listen.

thanks sunnyv - if something's new and not been reviewed and I dig it I'll try my best, I'm posting a load of short reviews on AOTY regularly so might be little extra effort :D

Yeah, this is beautiful, has a strange mood to it which isn't really replicated by any other music I've heard. Kinda reminds me of John Martyn a bit in places, that might be the closest comparison I've got.
|

Like a stitched-together John Martyn almost like each little element is attached to the next but not really meshing or overlapping
|

I can’t say this is impressing me as much as the last, but it’s certainly very intriguing, and I’m enjoying the way most tracks seem to trail off into patchwork bedlam

anat - well I agree this is a shade weaker than the previous album but I do respect the choice of collab on this one, think Weisman adds a lot
I actually forgot the previous album was effectively a collaboration with Cass McCombs, read an interview and Mills he really taught him a lot about economy in lyrics in particular when they were working on that album

I’m sure I’ve said it before but his voice reminds me of bill wurtz and the hodge pidge compositions on this make me think of history of japan

Just watched five minutes of ‘history of Japan’ - strangely addictive but I’m not sure I learnt anything I’ll remember :D

check the previous one if you haven't - still a little better I think and quite similar

I actually haven't heard any of this guy's previous works, despite being familiar with his name for a while. Will do

He's quite prolific as a producer and session musician so I'm sure you've heard his touch on something before now.
I'm actually not quite clicking with some of this, it has some very wonderful moments for sure but I prefer his previous two for sure.

Hmmm, this is pretty much a perfect follow up to the previous one for me - a couple of the later songs are a bit less engaging I guess
