I second that opinion... this is a very great album (EP?) Really more ambient, I'd say. What I like the most about it are the little repetitive clicky sounds in the background - The spacy ambience together gives it a very spacy feel, and then these clicky mechanical sounds almost seem like the noises that a spacecraft's machinery would make as it tours TransNeptunian space... Doesn't make me cry, but makes me want to put on a spacesuit, or peer out the window at Neptune :) If you don't mind paying for CDR's, go get it!!!
