Mark Richardson, writing for Pitchfork Media, stated that "there are long stretches, particularly in the early going, where it's more of a sound piece than what is usually described as 'music', but the album's second half contains some of Jaar's loveliest tunes."[2] Sasha Geffen, writing for Consequence of Sound, said that given its length, "Pomegranates doesn’t always feel like an album or a soundtrack so much as it feels like an experiment in sculpting time."[3]

gollark: Anyway, despite being economically bad (unless you can give special things not available on the open market), you may object that gifting is still good because it forms social bonds.
gollark: Well, if it would actually be better for them than the equivalent money try and convince them so.
gollark: Recommend them it, as I said.

gollark: It is generally considered good for the costs of gifts between you to equalise over time. So to skip transaction costs you should simply not exchange money and recommend products to each other periodically.
