Sadly this is the last studio album we will hear from noise/drone/ambient titans Yellow Swans. On the plus side they went out on a major high note, delivering this subtle masterpiece to cap off a career full of grand arcs and valleys of sound. The Yellow Swans made noise beautiful and emotionally intense, instead of just intense. They humanized what was a cold and harsh medium and made it something more massive than simple sonic assaults as a result. "Going Places" is such a dense work, full of so many subtle currents and diverging streams that it will continue to provide discovery long into the future, and will always be a monument to the brutal beauty that was the Yellow Swans.
