Track 1 (Love) Great guitar sound and I rather like the spoken vocal; reminds me of Waits (shut up) on “Shore leave”.
Track 2 (Love) Nice bassline, a little more restrained and downbeat but still good
Track 3 (Love) Back to the spoken vocal, kind of ominous guitar
Track 4 (Love) This is very downbeat, laidback. Well, for most of it. Like this a lot. Slow percussion is cool. Like the way the tension builds up too.
Track 5 (Love) This is just gorgeous: bleak, desolate, melancholy instrumental. Love it.
Track 6 (Love) Yeah, this one is great too.

End result: This is an album I have nothing whatsoever bad to say about. Truly exceptional.

So, Love or Hate? Duh! Love of course.

Chances of a full review: 9/10
That's for sure one of my Top 3 post-rock albums wother Godspeed's Lift Your Skinny Fists and Tortoise's T.N.T. Really great album I'm glad you liked this one.
