    Pressing sounds great. Need to boost the gain as it's such a long lp but mine is dead quiet. Excellent release.

      I have to agree with the previous reviews this lp has something of a continuation but also a break with previous works. There is absolutely no mistaking it for FSOL but there’s totally a leaking valve dripping colors like I have never seen. This bursts wide open the spectrum.

        It's hard to review it in separation from Environment 6, but .5 is different, better and is a great come back of FSOL. I really thought that name was dead, as a lot of Archives and previous Environments were IMO just plain copies of copies.
        This one is different. It certainly has the mood of Lifeforms, but it brings some epic tracks like "The day the poles shifted" or "Anacro Rhythm". These are upbeat, melodic, well composed and arranged. Almost dance-able. There are a few beatless intermissions like "Next Town", there are more experimental tracks like "Emissions of Light", but the whole album is surprisingly coherent.
        Summarizing. Take Lifeforms + a bit of Dead Cities (I think I can hear samples from it here) and you have 6.5. It's really that good. Substantial difference versus previous Environments. 5/5
