Yes, I know that Ef will most likely never make a record as good as Give Me Beauty...Or Give Me Death! but lets be honest...this is miles better than I am Responsible.
Mourning Golden Morning isn't anything new for post-rock, but then again, what is.
As Greg from Moving Mountains very recently told me: "Post rock is a dead end".
This record is still very solid and very listen-able to me due to tracks like "Sons of Ghosts", "Longing for Colors", both which have beautiful female vocals, and the ending track "Alp Lugens and Beyond" which could have been on This Will Destroy You's self-titled album.
In fact, if it weren't for "Sons of Ghosts", this record might have been in the top 20s, or maybe a honorable mention, but the song is so goddamn good that it brings me back to listen to the entire CD frequently.
In all, this is still the best post-rock CD of the year, as there wasn't much else offered up in 2010.
