I've channeled every handful of senselessness into a bottomless pit & I'm still watching it overflow. Every shipwreck, each and every ache. I'm still watching it overflow. It borders a frame with snapped supports, the ageing rust spills out. My hollow ghost alive in the breeze, dust as I breathe. I'm told this is just a wave that needs riding out. The humming of this machine is fading now. A round of applause for the optimists in us; let the bellowing of our joined hands lead them home. Lead them home, lead them home, keep me whole, lead me home.

Sleepmakeswaves is one of the best bands out there that blend ethereal tracks with other tracks with beautiful interlaced guitar playing, as if both players are feeding off of the energy of the other, creating a massive and powerful energy that cannot be stopped! This is one fantastic record, and is easily one you can put the whole album on and love every single song. Charlie Mayer

blackwing is still my favourite cloudkicker release but subsume sure is up there. I think I prefer the original to the remaster honestly (it's been a while though, I'll have to listen again soon) katsumashi

This review is long overdue. This album right here is the album that finally pulled me out of the "commercial" music world and into the world of the raw, experimental, and sincere. An amalgamation of everything I love about post-metal and hardcore taken to a mathy, heavy, ambient extreme. brineryte
