Not only because I mainly spent my time on full-length albums, but also for practical reasons: only two songs are shared on Bandcamp, YouTube, Soundcloud and Spotify, and unfortunately a physical copy wasn\u2019t available in Europe (and sold out quickly in the US). Still, I didn&#8217;t doubt for a moment whether this should be at the top, simply because this was the <a href=\"https:\/\/addtowantlist.com\/index.php\/2021\/02\/20\/new-ep-noah-c-lekas-sounds-from-the-shadow-factory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">most impressive<\/a> release of the past year in all respects.
