I like Mezzanine and 100th Window. They're both dark, and 100th Window took a while to get into, but I think I'd rather listen to them than the first two albums.

Dug this out today. Love how it sounds but there's hardly anything memorable about it.

extended intro on first track was longer on the promo I think

The only two tunes I really ever go back to are Everywhen and Small Time Shot Away.

Hmmm, I might do a poll for all of MA's post-Mezzanine songs.

yeah this thing sounds so damn lush and steely but with little in way of hooks, it just amounts to very expensive-sounding sonic wallpaper.

This kind of thing is fine if you're in the mood.

I think this album is massively underrated

Brad is correct.

the kind of album where the hidden track is so good it makes you less mad at the idea of hidden tracks

Their first four albums are discrete marvels.

Yeah this is a very good album in retrospect. The highs of Heligoland are perhaps higher, but 100th is more consistent and forges its own style more.
