I've been waiting for news on this for a while.

Inclusion of vox and percussion has me a bit :? , though. Very interested in hearing how those elements are folded in.

I'm excited because it's Eluvium and TAAT is one of my favorite albums of time.

I'm not excited because that cover art sucks and vox and percussion scare me.

Talk Amongst the Trees definitely has my favorite Eluvium cover art, but I also like this and the other Jeannie Lynn Paske covers.

I love her art, but I don't like that one. Or the title, really.

I kinda like that he worked the phrase "talking amongst the trees" into the first track, though.

There are a lot of textures here that are more reminiscent of Talk Amongst the Trees.

I don't think it's bad, but it might have made more sense to release it under his own name. More so than Miniatures, anyway.
