I would be hard pressed to know who to recommend this music to. Instrumental dirges of long durations. Of the four tracks, two are 6:30 each and the other two are 20 minutes in length. This is drone music in general; and it must be good because its in the upper echelon of every year end list. Godspeed... formed in the nineties and broke up ten years ago. And to their credit, if this is the kind of music you're into- they definitely acheive a quality sound out of it.
None of these tracks sound pieced together, like epic instrumentals often can. These songs feel like they were exactly composed and performed live in the stuido.There is often an ascension that is executed to feel like a battle scene movie score. At the fifteen minute mark of "We Drift Like Worried Fire" the drone is given a steady backbeat which would be a great place for a mosh circle.
Unfortunately, I wouldn't be giving this any more spinds than I would your average opera. My rating, as always, reflects my own taste. (2.5 of 5 stars)
