my smart cat can open latched doors but my dumb cat will look at a slightly ajar door and be unsure if she fits through it and be totally stumped and start crying out for help

The riff on "First Red Rays" slaps
Listening! Very few bands can weather kicking their frontman out for any reason, but here Neurosis are back guns blazing, like they haven’t missed a beat. Atmo sludge godfathers now supplemented w/ Aaron Turner’s booming harshes. Continuing to do no wrong. neurosis.bandcamp.com/track/blind #MetalSky

Although this has the appearance of an impossibly brilliant split diopter shot, the way this cover art was constructed was by means of collage. Each member was photographed individually, and then the pieces were assembled so that everyone was equally in focus. This was all done by hand!
