sort of true, but the scope of what he was doing ramped up quite a bit around Hissing Fauna.
Looking at it by year on Wiki, 2 year gaps on average since HF, but it feels like a lot more for some reason.

LWS was my fave since Hissing Fauna and this sounds like it's cut from a similar cloth. Down for it.

loses steam in the second half but the first few tracks are really good

Hmm. Feeling like there's a lot of gold in that second half. Maybe not as immediate as the first half (though things like 'Apollyon of Blue Room' certainly are), but still hot as hell.

'Empyrean Abattoir' must be one of their greatest songs. Ridiculously great melodies
