Despite there only being three songs on the entire album, this CD still manages to clock up over an hours worth of listening time, and what an hour it is. I had something of a musical epiphany when I first heard The Dead Flag blues, I knew I had to explore the genre and the band as much as I possibly could, just in case there were other instances of such rare musical perfection as this that I didn... read more

Description: Amazon.com's Best of 1998 On first listen, Montreal collective Godspeed You Black Emporer sounds familiar, like sonic-landscape architects the Dirty Three.

Listening Log for 2012 (438 music items)

"There are a lot of boring parts, but a lot of excellent exciting as well parts, not to mention that amazing monologue in the beginning. Still, I feel it's to heavily flawed for me to rate it higher"

“Despite there only being three songs on the entire album, this CD still manages to clock up over an hours worth of listening time, and what an hour it is. I had something of a musical epiphany when I first heard The Dead Flag blues, I knew I had to explore the genre and the band as much as I possibly could, just in case there were other instances of such rare musical perfection as this that I didn't know about.
