Millions now Living will Never Know the Wonder of this Recor
L. Peyronnin | Phoenix, AZ United States | 05/26/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"If one wants to know how prog and jazz fusion changed to assume a 90s still then they just need to listen to this fascinating double CD! A group from Chicago that starts from the premise of cold, atmospheric sound and departs to the point of improvisation and the stretching of their original musical ideas. The scenes evoked by this wonderful set of "program music" include (in my most sober mind) camp fires in the middle of pasture at night with fireflies bugging the night-glowed campers. Happy happy mystical joy! Ice space and the sudden interruption of a rail road in the distant distance. (The video for one of this record's tracks featured a very homey looking home video of icecles forming on trees in the middle of a mostly barren field and the formation is speeded up to show the process via elapsed time photography like, man man man . . . this album and its music is just too cool, it forces one to renew that term, steal it back from the little brats who use it now to describe their silly video games or whatever garbage they be into now. `Cause this album is jost so smooth and delicious and COOL to be ignored without superlatives. BUY IT BY ALL MEANS mlost especially if you are an alumnus of the Happy the Man/Kit Watkins school of spaciouis, lightly improvised sound textures.

Served up best, again, COLD. TORTOISE-SICLE . . . delish"

"A great cd to start with if you have never heard Tortoise before. A excellent addition if you have. From the beginning to the end, Tortoise takes you through many moods. You can't help but be amazed at the talent from these five guys. If you like Tortoise check out June of 44, The Sea & Cake, Dianogah, or the Reach the Rock soundtrack."
