Drowned In Sound
It remains, at its heart and in the best possible way, a very small record of considerable charm. Warmly recommended

It’s hard to figure out where the Sigur Rós influence ends and the Death Vessel album begins. Nevertheless, as pretty much anyone will tell you, this sound hits more than it misses

Deeper, more connective, and more exciting than anything Death Vessel has brought us before

Thibodeau floats above the unusual, percussion-based but beautifully spun backdrops like a soprano cherub. Print edition only

Marks a giant leap for Thibodeau, while not veering too far from his own trodden trail. Call it future folk, but in 10 years we’ll be calling it timeless

This is passionate music, delivered with searing honesty by a man who didn’t mind disappearing from the conversation if that’s what it took to articulate what he was trying to say

The Line Of Best Fit
An intriguing story of the restless, nomadic soul, searching for different landscapes and soundscapes to impress upon the individual psyche; a cathartic communication, and an introspective revelation

The tracks on Island Intervals are anything but obvious; they’re lush, contemplative and challenging

There are times when the tracks try to imitate his collaborators’ lush dreamscapes without reaching their intimate beauty

His focus on atmosphere isn’t as successful as it should be, especially when the best songs are often the most straightforward

The shift into the shadows works in parts for Thibodeau, but the album doesn’t want to linger in that dark so much as obliterate it with a light we’ve heard from him before. That would be all right, but here some of the songs get buried in the process
