Takk...

The emotional depth here is staggering. I was completely floored the first time.

The instrumentation is gorgeous throughout. Really well produced.

I go back and forth on this — some days it's a 4, some days it's a 4.5. The inconsistency in my own feelings about it probably reflects the slight inconsistency of the album itself. But at its best, this is breathtaking.

I can see why people love this but it didn't grab me the way I expected.
