Small Vessel
''Small Vessel'' is the second studio album by British indie rock musician SJ Esau. It was released on Anticon in 2008. Critical reception Matt Rinaldi of AllMusic commented that ''Small Vessel'' "continues in the same genre-bending vein as its predecessor, blending elements of indie rock, folk, hip-hop, house, techno-pop, and industrial to create an end-product that is delightfully disorienting." Dave Gurney of ''Tiny Mix Tapes'' gave the album 3 stars out of 5, writing, "Like being let into a friend's bedroom studio while he or she pores over partially and/or cryptically labeled tapes containing songs and experiments at varying states of completion, SJ Esau's sophomore effort ''Small Vessels'' has the initially intoxicating feeling of being let in on a secret treasure trove of restless musical creativity." He added, "Untitled bits of sonic debris mix with false starts of songs; hushed passages give way to lush arrangements of vocal and instrumental beauty bordering on the epic; ...
