Took me a few listens but listening to this now and really getting into it. I can njever quite decide whether i preferred them in their earlier days as a doom metal band but regardless, i think they do the artsy, atmospheric rock thing very well and this album is certainly no exception. At times a tight wall of sound of distorted guitars and at other times, a meditative wave of melody and male/female vocal harmonies.
The album was mixed by Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree and maybe it's just me, but i think you can tell. I can imagine Porcupine Tree fans digging this.

And this is a good cover.
she has that southern bell voice, you know that kind of voice you imagine an old-western waitress to have
