3 stars Very experimental and out there, "Graveyard Mountain Home" is an eclectic offering of complex rhythms and psychedelic melodies very different than the more approachable "Dead Air for Radios".

Sounding very produced, "GMH" abounds with soft textures, sonic soundscapes and acrobatic rhythms. Moore's singing is very minimalist, the instruments and samples doing most of the speaking. His compositions are strong, but are not as memorable as before, making "GMH" great for moody background music and little else; it's too spacey to actively listen to and one certainly can't sing-along to it.

However, the complexity and layered sound grows on the listener after a few spins, and makes a fine purchase for one seeking a smart and fun diversion into the eccentric and ambient.

Songwriting: 4 Instrumental Performances: 3 Lyrics/Vocals: 2 Style/Emotion/Replay: 4
