This album is very cinematic, cathartic, and each track is like it’s own journey. I love the progression of Steven’s music, especially in an album like this because it takes it’s time to build up. Boredoms
Only 2 tracks but 2 very interesting tracks!. Sanahin chills and flows along creating various atmospheres on the way. The Folding Book takes a different journey which is full of varying sounds and instruments. A very enjoyable listen. Robert Wallace
Smith seems to be a master of every instrument out there and on New Evening he applies his skill to several strange ones, layering and manipulating them to great effect. The result is two primordial pieces suspended in time, shifting, glowing, and shimmering like the sunset over the Pacific, or a sunrise burning away the morning fog over the Blue Ridge Mountains. This album is another flawless entry into Smith's vast catalog of haunting hymns to the world's secret and lost things. The Dusk Chapel
The experimental rock band's new record is as melodic and inventive as ever, but now with an even more honed sense of play. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 27, 2024
