I thought Bleed was very good, but not great. Disquiet, however, is greatness. An album of this length is risky, but it works as three disks individually, and as a three hour whole. Rapid Eye Movement and Ghost Net are equally propelling in completely different ways. Causeway is utterly beautiful from the opening notes, and sublimely shocking when the drums finally join in. Warm Running Sunlight seems to suspend time. Disquiet could be even longer if it wanted to. This is my #5 album of 2025.

You'd think that the statement "this is the work of amazing musicians playing together" should apply to everything that I choose to listen to, but I still feel the need to emphasize it here. Four songs, 17-21 minutes each, and every moment is alive with intensity, filled with atmosphere, shrouded with energy that pulls you forward even in the most repetitive or simplistic moments. Travel is dramatic, in the calmest, coolest way, and it is very good.

Hooray, Cuneiform Records revived their special weekend offers, starting with a relatively calm (compared to most other offerings on that adventurous label) album. With all the hardly bearable noise coming out of DC (and I'm not talking about any musicians), it's great that these DC stalwarts of wayward music stubbornly keep releasing things that the world really should hear/lsiten to... Make freedom great again!
