Trying to follow up a successful collaboration had to be just about as tricky as aligning the individual schedules of each of the participants for that sequel -- in fact, it took five years to get everyone back together again. Again, the project draws more on
Ka-Spel's strengths and background than on
Key's, turning in a mildly psychedelic electronic soundscape, this time with organic elements like acoustic and electric guitar scattered prominently throughout. It's a nice effect and it certainly brings broader range to the
Tear Garden sound, but at the same time it edges the band closer towards a funked-up electro
Pink Floyd. How you react to this fact is up to you. ~ Sean Carruthers
