I probably haven't been up on this as much as I would have preferred. I think part of that is, while I do/did enjoy O'Brother's debut record Garden Window a fair amount back in 2011, their style is rather schizophrenic, and especially with Doomy/Sludgey music, I often have struggled with it, if not just not cared for at all (see Minnesota's own Zebulon Pike for example).
But that being said, I am happy and looking forward to this record, but I suppose like Garden Window, my expectations are not gigantic. More of, I'll check it out, if it doesn't blow me away, I won't be too down about it, but maybe at least a few songs will grab me. And if it does really catch my ear, I will be happily surprised.
These guys are doing a type of college experimental prog in some ways, and actually there aren't really any bands who cover the exact combinations of styles of music.
