 Love at Second Listen November 5, 2008
At First Listen: I thought the first track was cool, and there were a couple others that I could see myself liking, given a few more listens, but a lot of the songs seemed borderline stupid. I guess, most of all, I was hoping (and expecting) it would be more like the previous album: Exquisite Corpse.
At Second Listen: I decided to throw out all hopes and expectations. The songs jumped out at me, and intrigued me. I couldn't listen to it enough. I was in love and still am, years later.
This is one of those albums that I have to listen to every so often. It defines me to some degree.
It is very versatile, too. I can listen to it quietly while studying, or at a medium volume while driving, but the best is loudly while cooking.
Daedelus Denies The Day's Demise is an unimaginable blend of intelligence and fun. Enjoy!
great album, recommended September 6, 2008
this album is wonderful. it's crazy, it's loose, but it comes from a mind that knows what he wants the end result to sound like. so it never sounds like doodling. the great tracks make up for any that you may skip over. the sound he creates is lush and complex, but still fun and crazy. if you dug the 1st boards of canada, get it, if you dig trip hop with an experimental edge, get it, i can't think of anyone else to "get it" so i'll stop typing. baaaeeeaaa
 Back to basics, for better or worse August 28, 2006

Daedelus is by far one of the most innovative names in electronic music, and music in general. That is why I was a bit disappointed with this new album of his. His earlier works such as Of Snowdonia were interesting and unique, but Exquisite Corpse was an amazing mixture of his earlier forms combined with earthy vocals and deep songs (The Mike Ladd version of "Welcome Home" is worth the CD by itself). He had these complex mixtures of computer and organic sounds coexisting and growing as the occasional voice came in singing or spouting poetry...and now he has gone back to his more basic, earlier styles. This is by no means a bad album, but lacks some of the spark that made Exquisite Corpse such a punch in stomach for more "normal" left-field music.
Eclectic sounds to stimulate the mind... July 6, 2006

The sound of brazilian drums, old movie soundtracks and the innovative tunes of electronica make of this album another great release by Daedelus. It doesn't take too long to get lost into another world and get inmersed in a universe where the sun never goes down, summer is the eternal season and California becomes the synonym of paradise. As the music goes on your ears will end up addicted to every single chime, drum, and any other enigmatic noise thrown into this already unique masterpiece.
Sunscreen anyone?
Another masterpiece! June 28, 2006

This is by far Daedelus' best work and best mixed album. Its a return to the depth and more instrumental approach of "Of Snodonia" but with a new direction. This is a deep listening magical experience and some people will scratch their heads at this album at first listen but give it a chance and it will grow on you- (which is why this CD is having a hard time exiting my player). I believe a great body of work like this will definitely stand the test of time and Daedelus should be extremely proud of his endeavor.
