Super album from a Supergroup! Man, how I wish they had stayed together. Insert sad face.

Came into this album because I decided on a whim to start working through the projects Omar Rodriguez-Lopez has been involved with. Ended up falling in love with the album on its own merits, not to mention the strength of Teri's vocals. Cannot recommend it enough.

Love Descends

A new record of bright-eyed and bittersweet jangle pop from this Oxford (where else?) band.

Taking the art pop elements of the self-titled reunion album from a couple of years ago into a jazz and ambient direction was certainly not what I thought would come next for TMV, but then again A). I don't think anyone would've, and B). it's yet again another strong direction change I'm glad they've taken. Intricately detailed, especially for a whole 50 minute through-mixed experience, I've found this works really well as a late night listen, much like "Octahedron" and "Que Dios" before it.
