It makes the album sound rather scattered yet also quite esoteric. As if these tracks were collected over a long period of time and each one from very different settings. Perhaps the most jarring are the tracks that present a lone meandering guitar as the source. They tend to be slow and somewhat melancholic.<\/p>\n<p>The noisier tracks here are raw and simplistic but they have a movement and basic framework that makes them effective. The production is quite lo-fi but it adds to the dusty atmosphere that pervades the release as a whole. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a solid album but one that seems a touch forgettable. Perhaps it&#8217;s that the minimalism &#8211; where it appears &#8211; isn&#8217;t consistent enough, or the lack of low end in the track lineup. Either way Lis sounds like a competent showing of a project that is still trying to pin down their sound and style.<\/p>\n<table width=\"35%\" border=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td width=\"40%\"
