Just realized after posting--they played a couple of these songs live last year. So, uh, from what I can remember: Early Grave Blues is rockin' and What We Love, etc. is pretty post-rockin', with singing. Lots of strings.

the only album of theirs that i find myself interested in revisiting is 13 Blues for Thirteen Moons. I like them when they are at their most ROCK. I guess a lot of their hardcore fans don't like that one for that exact reason. I'll give this new one a chance, but chances are i will listen to it, then completely forget about it ten minutes later.
I haven't listened to a ton of their stuff, but I either love the hell out of it or am completely disinterested. This track, however, sounds badass to me.

if zion was his attempt at learning to compose soundtracks...think i read that....i'd call his solo album his attempt to write songs. there is some electronic textures, and fuzzed out lines. thicker production. more chorused singing. still crescendo but there's not really tension/release. nor movements so much, just....songs i guess. but not verse/chorus/verse obviously. it's undeniable who it is though. great stuff. definitely closer to zion....actually on the other side of zion.
