As they say, learn to trim the fat.

And here he comes...
"Whoops! We accidentally played for 300 million years, I guess just drop it as it is."

Lack of discipline and restraint isn't really an accurate criticism.

Idunno, I think it's best not to take the music so personally. It's their art, not a homework assignment for you.

Did this come from a lack of discipline

Let's just keep quoting each other's videos until they listen.

If you take into account that those tracks aren't really intended for "listening", BoH pretty much only have great music. One of the most versatile artists of all time.

I think this says more about you than them.

Well I cant speak for everyone, but I have put on both albums (Somnium and Perpetual) to sleep to and have quite enjoyed them, before and after sleep. Perhaps the music seeps into one's consciousness idk, but they have been very peaceful and satisfying listens for me regardless of their length or what they are "made" for.
