Quirky at first; brilliant after repeated listens.

Greatly ambitious in combining folk and arena rock sized production. I like a lot of the songwriting and some of the more intimate songs feel very warm. But it all comes off tawdry. A lot of flash a lot of flair, also plenty of over the top songwriting and excessive theatrics. The intimacy and tenderness always has to be interrupted by the arrangement getting up its own about itself and the vocals never quite can catch up with the instrumental's grandeur. The word 'bloated' comes to mind. But bloated and morbidly obese. Like Fleet Foxes on steroids and whinier.

Ok this is some bombastic chamber music ranging from pop to rock to folk. What I particularly like about this is how introspective it manages to be without losing its rhapsodic nature. The album's theme, while tragic, is tinted with optimism that allows it to be much more than yet another lachrymose work done by some bearded dude strumming his guitar. Small nitpick: the record's last third does not work as well as the first two, but hey it's still great stuff. Pristine arrangements, upbeat dynamic ranges and above-average songwriting: it reminds me of the best Arcade Fire and yes, this is very good and I would have loved to have discovered this in 2013.

"White Lighter" is incredible, and perhaps the Typhoon's work that i liked the most. "Offerings" was the first i heard from them, and i found it a bit overrated, even though i need to pay more attention. Awesome band.
