I really like the main guitar part on this, and the harmonies are nice. But I do think it needs to resolve into something a little more exciting - I do like the little ramp ups the song has, but ramping to what?
Slight Amongst the Waves/Unthought Known memories with the resolution - there's noise and feeling but not enough differentiation from the (superior verses)

The 'combing through the wreckage' refrain/ post chorus is a bit weak but the verses and chorus (presuming you see the 'visited by thoughts' bit as the chorus rather than the aforementioned section) are very strong.

there are a lot of exciting crescendos here, I kind of like that this doesn't have one
This just never really ends up going somewhere. At one point I was thinking "oh shit, is this going towards a Corduroy-like uplifting bridge?" but it doesn't reach that level. (Side note: only 1 listen)

I thought of Corduroy too, but I don't think it needs all that lift
Was disappointed at first but this one has grown on me the most...verses are great and the long outro has a hypnotic quality which differs from almost anything else on DM. Should note that the absolute lack of any low end on the leak probably hurts this song as much as any other. It needs a nice bass line so hopefully that is fleshed out upon release.
Another one that I liked on first listen, but wasn't fully prepared for. It's growing with repeated listens. Instead of dwelling on the comparisons, this probably should be appreciated for the song that it is.
