the sheer expanse of this album/collection is daunting

holy 4.7 batman

not sure why but this whole 'colors as sound' concept is really workin for me

This collection is too long for the potential anti-hypers to bother listening to it ;p. Average rating will stay imo.

Album Rating: 3.5

The length is a little obscene as one large piece. IMO it works better as separate EPs

That's why it isn't meant to be played as an album. I really hope you didn't knock your score down because of that...

Album Rating: 3.5

I knocked my score down for whatever reasons I damn well please







but no it is because some songs fall flat

Album Rating: 4.0

digging a bunch of songs i've sampled. "canopy" rules

saw these guys open for say anything forever ago and they killed. i've only listened to act I, though. should i catch up on their catalog first or does this stand on its own?

Album Rating: 3.5

this stands on its own but you'll probably appreciate the diversity of this more after hearing acts 2 and 3

Album Rating: 5.0

4.7? This must be the HIGHEST rating I've seen on here since Ok Computer. Come on guys, its not that good. It's definitely worth a 4.3 or so though.

every album has a 4.2+ when it first leaks/streams who cares

Wow, did not expect this so well received. I feel like I enjoyed it, but nothing really struck me upon first listen. Will hopefully give it more time when I get it.

Album Rating: 3.0

It's easy to rate this entire collection as a whole quite highly (mostly - but not entirely - because of its ambition, details and dedication) but when looking at the EPs in their own right, it's not nearly as glamorous of an affair. I mean, I think if were to rate all the EPs individually, then take a median rating of those ratings and compare that to what I'll inevitably rate this entire collection, they'll differ.

It depends on how you look at it. Picking out an album's worth of tracks from it (25% or so), I can easily see it as as 4.5, picking out 50% I can see it being worth roughly 4.25-4.5.

It's kind of hard to penalize it as a singular piece of work because it just happens to also come with the B sides.

who would neg this?

How could anyone in the entire world hate Casey's voice? I didn't even think that was possible...

Album Rating: 4.0

well now you know better

Album Rating: 4.5

I don't think his vocals are all that whiny on this album compared to his Act albums.

he reminds me of an american version of the guy from frightened rabbit. his stuff is pretty good, but nowhere near the massive hype he's getting here. 4.7? really? i mean sure it's like 60 votes, but why all the 5s? geez
