2. Landscare

For nostalgic reasons and its scary atmosphere I love it. The liner notes of the vinyl date it back to 1984 which makes this the oldest SW recording ever released.
It works good in the flow.

8/10

Landscare - 7/10

I really like this one. Really cool atmosphere. As Frank said, it could be from a science fiction movie soundtrack, but for me that's a reason I like it. And, as Don said, it works well in the flow of the album too.

3. Prayer

Doesn't really add much, but at least it's not annoying.

Prayer - 5/10

Hard to get too excited over this short instrumental, but it's quite nice and works really well in the flow of the album.

3. Prayer
It's beautiful and fits in somehow. The interludes on this collection are far less annoying than those on Sunday.

Prayer

It's definitely not bad, but I wonder why it needs its own track. It could have easily gone onto the start of daughters in exile or something.

4. Daughters In Exile

Repetitive, noisy, doesn't really go anywhere.

4. Daughters In Exile
I always was a big noise fan. This is a piece of music you got to listen to aloud. It empties your head of anything.

9/10

I like the percussion...but that's about it.

He hates some of their latest stuff, especially The Incident.

I never thought an intelligent man like SW would go that far but The Incident sounds like selling his English butt to the music industry.

Daughters In Exile - 7/10

Really good, but I can't quite bring myself to give it an 8.

Even with non-radio-friendly 11min songs and multiple thematic parts? Sounds like the opposite to selling out...

Delightful Suicide

A nice little "oriental" inspired instrumental. Too short though.

Delightful Suicide - 6/10

Makes me think of some kind of creepy spaghetti western. Good, but as said, I would've liked it to be longer.

Eptitome said it, the song could be longer. But for what it is I like it. Again it works.
