3.0 out of 5 stars Not all is lost, September 14, 2003

Despite of the onslaught of instrumental bands, Threnody Ensemble tends to wade more in classical waters than the "post-rock" crowd. Truth is, Threnody Ensemble has produced an avant-garde album that results in half of the compositions being tedious and dissonant experimentations, while the other half being well-thought, dynamic, and beautifully executed "formal" pieces. The real problem is that there seems to be a lack of consistency between the avant-garde and the traditional, resulting in two extreme, contradictory facets of the group. Still, not all is lost...

5.0 out of 5 stars Crashing waves of sound, beating eggs in the air, June 26, 2003

This CD makes me think of the cracks in pavement, the spaces between buildings, and the unnoticed pauses before you eat bananas in the morning. It is the soundtrack to nothing, however, nothing may be the most important thing of all. Recommended.

i WANT 2 cry 2 this music # 1. anyways, y critisize anything anyway. a minor forest was s00000000000 fugn awesome i cried 2 them as well. I went 2 a concert; Shellac played, i cried 2 prayer 2 God. it was $20 4 a tshirt, i had only $17 and $3 in quarters and change. i dropped it on the stage and walked away. The bassist called me a fugr and i laughed, knowing what i had done. just like them. they could sense every change, every moment, of the time and place, relativity. Math rock is the only rock that is comparable 2 sonic youth vibrations that only usually hit when a person is at a peak of some sort of hidden epiphone. (lolz music, guitars creation. being different on purpose). =_ )
