apparently this reached a lot more people than i thought it did. two finnish brothers. this isnt the proper cover, i guess, but i like it more.descriptions are hard. it has just...this fucking sickening washed-out tone (and in the way i mean it, that is an extremely high compliment) that sounds like earth - hex as made by amphetamines and keyboards (not that it even remotely sounds like amphetamines or keyboards, but it occupies a space near to hex but chunky, quicker, and less riff-based). its probably drone under a lot of umbrellas, but very segmented, like tim hecker before he started making songs with 'part 1, 2, 3' (additional research suggests that there was never a tim hecker that didnt segment songs). only quieter than tim hecker. more like a soundtrack, but to what i cant exactly say...
the song that pinpointed the sound for me was midnight of the garden trees. very tor lundvall, but without the city, and requisite night sound. it could be anywhere. it's a fucking incredible sleeping album, although just that alone makes it shoot up through the ranks for me.
dustland is a great title, but it's much more lush than you might imagine. it's too fluid, even with the pronounced lack of continuation between tracks that is common with this sound (which is why i threw in 'post-rock'), and much too powerful, to just be dust.
