It All Starts From Pieces
by Distant Dreamsupported by 9 fans who also own “The Calm Before”
It may all start from pieces, but it ends as a perfect whole. I've been following this project since this album but never actually got around to buying them. It takes real talent to make instrumental music communicate emotion but this project has always been capable of making me feel. The blend of progressive metal and post-rock is utterly sublime. Ambient, riffy, bittersweet and beautiful!

Your Own Story
by Distant Dreamsupported by 9 fans who also own “The Calm Before”
This album takes on a more optimistic tone than the debut, something reflected by the album art. It still has elements of melancholy and bittersweetness, but right from the start ("Images"), you hear that this album feels like an answer to the debut's questions: pick up the pieces you started with and write your own story. This is, in my opinion, best represented by the apt-named "Reflection". A step up in many ways!

Departure Songs
by We Lost The Seasupported by 9 fans who also own “The Calm Before”
The raw emotion and the story progression conveyed through only instrumentals are incredible. A favorite of all time, one that I keep and will always keep returning to.

The beloved Japanese post-hardcore group return after three long years away with two new dynamic, heartfelt tracks.

Electrified melodic folk that draws as much from Pile and Horse Jumper of Love as Big Thief and Crazy Horse.

Classic emo sing-a-longs trade blows with tormented post-hardcore passages on the Brooklyn outfit's powerful sophomore LP.

Track-for-track, this is Distant Dream's best. Literally every song is 100% memorable. It also doesn't hurt that the album art is some of the coolest I've ever seen (flip it upside down, if you haven't already). This one returns levels of melancholy but with a counterpoint of hope, exemplifying the album title: it's all in how you look at life. All of their albums make me feel, but this one makes me FEEL, more than any other instrumental album I've ever heard. Complete and utter perfection!
