I have listen to SOM intensely since hearing the first bars of "Black Planet", and I have heard many imitations and mediocre renditions. This album. Floors. Me. Each track is a unique, personal and strikingly powerful musical execution of insight into the truly unique magick of this most inimitable group. My only criticism--and it is tragic one--is that the vinyl version was not the full "Honoris II" collection. Gods! Get this, servants: it is music to rise and reverberate to. Nafre de la Toundra

Hopscotching from jangle pop and post-hardcore to math rock and shoegaze, these Minnesota rockers have a gift for musical multitasking. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 29, 2024
