60bpm.com Review:
Todd came out from the hills for the holiday and gave me a copy of this album. It's turned-out to be one of the rare instances where better technology doesn't seem to have gotten in the way of the creative endeavor. What I mean is that Todd used to work with two-track, reel-to-reels where he'd have to bounce and bounce and bounce the tracks to do multi-track work. Now he's got a Macintosh ProTools system and a new drum machine and it sounds fantastic. It sounds like what he's always done, minus the analog noise, so you can really hear what all is going-on. Hey, I'm for analog and all, but digital, non-linear editing has its benefits, and Todd seems to know what he's doing with them. "marches of several dominions" sounds like a funk/techno/jazz version of Pink Floyd's "Welcome to the Machine" though it's a stretch. "vessel upon a rock" is a slow, slow, moody track that remind me of Arab Strap a little bit, though an instrumental version with a little more harmony.
