    His founds sound really different on these singles? Kind of threw me for a loop

    This is out tomorrow. Got a rave review on Stereogum and is named their album of the week.

    Album Of The Week: How To Dress Well's 'I Am Toward You'

    Tom's brother Dan also suddenly passed away last night - his artwork is all over HTDW's work through the years, and apparently especially so with this album. Give this a spin tomorrow when it drops in memory of Dan.

    My heart goes out to him and his family. That's incredibly harrowing, and will make the listen tomorrow more emotional than it already was.

    Heartbreaking and eerie timing-wise, really sad

    I didn't listen to any of the singles. I'm on the second track, Contingency/Necessity, which is amazing.


    Edit: Crypt Sustain!!! :drool:

    Durutti Column vibes are extremely strong on A Secret Within the Voice - maybe my favorite on the record. the kind of song I want to last forever.

    Just a beautiful album made even more powerful by his brother's sudden death. I cannot fathom that sort of loss and the timing of it all is especially uncanny.

    Yep masterpiece. Album of the year contender, “No Light” is a song of the year contender.

    There are so many great moments on this record, where the songs morph into some more (ending of On it and Around it, ending of Crypt Sustain, etc)

    On It and Around It is inching its way up for me with each listen
