Do Make Say Think return with another album, this time going back to their roots. Four long, instrumental tracks. Less vocals to divert your attention from their attention to detail on their own instruments, though some are present at the beginning of "Make". In the opener "Do", What starts off pretty unmenacing becomes full on shred halfway, with guitars being joined by horns before the denouement slows things down. "Make" has a very gardual build-up, where again the horns usher in the climax with guitars. To those who loved the new direction on "You, You're A History in Rust", this may not be exciting and "old hat", but it's refreshing hearing Do Make Say Think just do their thing instead of worrying about appeal or innovation. "Say" has an extremely cool groove, with jazzy drums and light guitar that blooms into something more at times then retreats back. "Think" is very serene, but has something strangely captivating with its occasional guitar flairs. It's a song I could easily have seen being on Squarepusher's Ultravisitor.
