This album goes beyond any unfathomable word of awe and amazement as we deeply draw in a landscape of continuous introspection through Tarantel's instrumental medium in creating an atmosphere where the soul draws in contemplative state in each piece. The Order of Things brings the ambiance of grandeur in one séance. josedenoche
I always end up saying the same things when I try to write about loscil. "Tense," "calm," "energy," "gentle," "goddamn amazing," etc. There is much familiarity to be found here from various pieces of his back catalogue, yet these four pieces still sound and feel new, and LUX Refractions is forward movement. It's tense and ener- aw hell. rvss.eel
Cerberus Shoal never fails! CS is so much more than just post rock. Homb dazzles with a plethora of influences from Eastern European folk, psych rock, experimental, classical, ambient, electronic, and post-rock amongst others. Cannot sing its praises enough. A smashing album! Taidgh Lynch

Some of Loscil's best work. Here he uses expansive orchestral samples to great effect, but it still has that inscrutable attention to detail that he's deservedly known for.
Loscil's music humbly hides the complexity of its composition, within its subtle detail, beckoning the listener to lean into the speaker and become immersed. Despite that, it is not disruptive in the background. JackG
