Reception

The EP was critically well received. Michael Fischer of The Michigan Daily described it as "ethereal romanticism" that made "for the closest thing in pop to a music for Gothic cathedrals".[2]

gollark: I'll just hack into your Computron and install cmake again.
gollark: It doesn't matter as long as it grows slower than Moore's law!
gollark: Nim actually sort of has a borrow checker thing as well, somehow, I used some of the stuff tied into that for my tree traversal stuff.
gollark: Er, I mean, crab crab crab praise Ferris bow before the borrow checker?
gollark: I do prefer nim use over rust now, not because I care about it being smaller but because it feels like a nicer language for my arbitrary purposes.
