The album features nine new songs, which their press release claims will be "both epic and lush" It continues "“Snowflake Midnight” is easily as thrilling as their other milestone releases, specifically their 1991 sprawling avant-psych debut ‘Yerself Is Steam’, and their 1998 masterpiece ‘Deserter’s Songs’, which signalled their rebirth as purveyors of a cosmic brand of the popular American songbook… ‘Snowflake Midnight’, given it’s inject of both vintage and present-day electronics, is perhaps less a rebirth than a reboot; but it sounds like a brand new Mercury Rev… Few bands can reinvent themselves even the once, but ‘Snowflake Midnight’ is the sound of lightening striking again…".
