hmm, I think this album's pretty great, esp. "Happy New Year" and "Two Ribbons." latter is one of those songs where I keep hearing the tension of it not going bigger in the way it seems ready to, so that every detail (slight distortion, a second voice tripping over the first, "watch them wash away") reads as a massive ripple in the fabric. reminds me of some other closing track(s) I can't quite place, has "So Tonight That I Might See" or "Looking Glass" energy maybe.

Agree the bookends are great, certainly the highlights for me based on one listen.
