Hidden on the internet under a personal youtube account and mysteriously pulled from the web... until now.

I hoped that Dirrt would get a release when Black Bile came out of the vault and now that day is finally here :')

Oh no, will it bend? Will it break if I fidget enough?

I have gotten to see and read JRR Tolkien's manuscripts in person and I get the same exact feeling of that day while listening to this album.

slamming. start to finish. absolutely slamming

I saw Cameron from Smith Westerns buy this record in an Amoeba Records video from a decade ago. "Flowers" has been in my head ever since and I'm blessed to find it purchasable somewhere.

I've been a fan for a long time and I am floored by this album. this is the culmination of YEARS of work. And it's truly a mindblowing album. I remember seeing Hortus Musicus 3 live in a backyard in suburban Chicago. locked it in my head ever since. hearing it again to close out this album gave me an insane rush of emotions. Also, "Little Tree" is the best song he's ever written imo.

To hear the sound of Melaina Kol develop over the years has been a privilege and a wild experience.

can't wait to come back in a few years and say i bought the early stuff. great album.

everything makes sense on this album.
