    Marc Byrd and Andrew Thompson aren't ploughing new ground, they've explored this patch for two decades. .... The Flaming Lips may add vocals and keyboards to the pillowy drift of "Chemicals Make You Small", but there's no escaping Slowdive's influence on "Deconstructing's" celestial haziness, [Jul 2026, p.31]

    The good thing is that Semi-Automatic Machines, BANG and Thirst possess the blistering urgency of a fire in a room with no doors. The downside, however, is that the busy nature of Hammok’s sound doesn’t sustain the interest throughout, especially when, as on Groundbreaker, you’ve got a track pushing the five-minute mark. Frankly, it can be exhausting.

    The Second Coming Was a Moonrise feels like they’re taking everything they’ve ever done well and executing it all to perfection. There’s a level of sophistication and sprawling, adventurous musicianship that feels unparalleled in modern ambient, post-rock, neoclassical, and dream pop circles.
