I've been put off of Earth for a long time. Two years ago I tried to listen to SunO)))'s Monoliths and Dimensions and I turned it off after 30 seconds. I just couldn't do it. I received rather a wrong impression of drone from that. Tentatively, I put this on my to-do list this year, all because Folksie was going on about its beauty earlier in the year, and I must say, this is quite a pretty post-rock album. Glad I gave it a shot. Thanks Folksie.
