    Awesome album. To me 'Sugar For the Pill" is an instant classic, possibly the best song Slowdive has ever done and that's enormous praise considering Alison, 40 Days, When the Sun Hits. There is an ethereal beauty that permeates the album from beginning to end and I just can't get enough of it.

    10/10, A+.

    P.S. I hope the next album is the logical successor to Pygmalion with lots of loops and abstract phrasing.

    The guitar in 'Falling Ashes' reminds me a bit of Mogwai's contributions in the Clint Mansell soundtrack to "The Fountain".

    If any album in the last 10 years has better guitar on it, please tell me.

    No kidding. Neil Halstead of one of the great guitarists of the last 25 years and nobody knows it.

    I'll write you into all of my songs Supporter

    Just listened and this was spectacular on first listen. Excited to get to know this album
     
  21. This and Alex G are practically all I've been listening to this month (which is saying a lot considering how many great records were released this month)
