This is the one with the creepy voice counting right? Absolutely a stand out track for me.

The last 30 seconds might be my favorite part of the whole album.
That melody, barely audible behind all the static noise at first, is one of the most beautiful things i've ever heard. The fact that it suddenly ends right when you actually start to hear it almost makes me want to cry.
All this pretty much makes this TH's Chromakey Dreamcoat for me, structure-wise at least.

This track strikes me as Sherbert Head's darker cousin. Definitely one of my favorites.

This feels like M+M were looking to reimagine 1971's Andromeda Strain opening soundtrack. Suitably creepy.

this song is what a UFO sounds like when it lands

I too enjoy the last 30 seconds or so. I feel like I can hear percussion under the static in a very muffled way. Almost sounds like it was recorded in a cave then regurgitated.

The last bit of this track reminds me of Burial in so many ways, and I can't smile any harder. I have Burials latest EP on vinyl and hearing this made me feel that Mike and Marcus have definitely listened to Burial.

At 0:26 I hear a woman saying "1995" followed by a repeating "99".

i maybe hear 'nine nines' instead, and possibly '81' as well, which is of course nine nines.

slowed down it sounds like 1995, but the 19 bit is so delayed and echoed out it's hard to tell

Very nice understated piece that serves as a bridge between two of the bigger tracks on the album. This seems like one of those vignettes that might not ever be among anyone's favorites, but it works very well in the context of the album.

This ones actually my favorite shorter ambient piece on the album.

Aaaaaaagh why does everyone keep saying this about Tomorrow's Harvest in general?

I don't see that for all of the album, just for the last bit of this track. I guess I can see where they are coming from, due to the amount of static, noise, and radio interference going on in the album.

The ending to this song is incredibly beautiful. The whole static + a beautiful melody is just a standout on the whole album.

NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN!

(I couldn't help remembering that when listening to that track today)

Also, lots of people mentioned Jacquard Causeway being a waltz, but did anyone notice the main part of this track is in 5/8?
