	I was sceptical with the first two albums basically without a rhythm section at all. The new one fits right in, kinda Isis-lite. Added to the list.

	Thanks. I was a bit skeptical myself because it was more on the ambient side for the first studio albums. The Impromptu split and the new album though were good enough I thought.

	I know it's a year later but I just came upon this again after awhile. Did they get overtaken on the priority list?
