Admittedly, I listened to this like a month ago, but I've been too lazy to review it until now. You may remember that their S/T wasn't my favorite thing in the world. Like 3 tracks on it are amazing and the rest was just decent at best. This album, however, is a massive improvement. The tracks are still sort of generic at times, and "The Sun" isn't on here, but nonetheless, the songwriting is superb and the vocals are vastly improved. The songs are lush, complimented by the organ playing and smooth dual-vocal performances that wrap you up like a blanket. It's a real comforting album, an experience not unlike that of a shoegaze or post-rock album.
9/10
