They're basically asleep amiright

Not my favorite TH album but very close. It gets a 9 for having a slightly lacking 2nd half. 1st half is easily a 10. It's an album that does so much in the background. Almost like listening to a Talk Talk album. Great headphones record.

That's not one of my albums. You're getting mixed up, Exo.

I get where Janzs is coming from for about half of the record, but it also has a lot of tracks with percussion that's too busy for me to think of it as low key. It's plainly too exciting.
