5.0 classic | AnimalsAsSummit | December 10th 19 | This is way more than being Talk Talk obsessed, for me. What you get here is jazzy chamber, lounge, trip-hop made sparse, beautiful, sometimes dark. Genre-defying leaps of chillness and sophistication. It's what I love, and it's a masterpiece.

3.5 great | zaruyache | August 13th 18 | Still just Talk Talk-obsessed, Bark Psychosis' second album is surprisingly superior to its more heavily lauded debut.

4.5 superb | Doppelganger | December 26th 07 | It's hard to follow up such an influential record as 1994's Hex, one of the first albums to acquire the post rock label. I went into this album with little expectations due to how little I hear about this album and how much I hear about Hex, but with Bark Psychosis's 2004 release Codename: Dustsucker, Graham Sutton once again proves his mastery of creating dreamy soundscapes with excellent pop sensibilities. While still retaining many characteristics that its predecessor is known for, Dustsucker opts for a more guitar-oriented sound which works for the best. From the opener "From What Is Said To When It's Read," Graham immediately builds up a dense atmosphere layered with guitars and reverb-laden vocals, and the density does not let up for the album's entirety. "Black Meat" may very well be the best BP track to date, starting with a jazzy section complete with a muted trumpet solo until dissolving into a beautiful cascade of synths. Each track is unique and stands out in its own right. In conclusion, Dustsucker meets and exceeds the standards set by Hex, and overall ends up being one of the best albums that I've come across all year.
