More or Less Is More continues to challenge the boundaries of modern music, while still clinging fiercely to the homegrown DIY ethics of their Midwestern background. The music of Stationary Odyssey, while neither immediate nor conventional, carries the passion of folk music along with the atmospheric pressures of trip-hop and the explosiveness of indie-rock. With songs like the adventurous and sparkling "Aiming at the Blur" and "Perpetual of the Retired Evermore," a song that could effortlessly serve as the soundtrack to the anxious struggling of a drowning victim, More or Less Is More is one of those rare instrumental pieces that offers the listener a subconscious journey disguised as rock album.
