I thought that'd probably be the case, which looks to me an odd thing to do. "Calligraphy" seems to have made its way to Bandcamp as a means to showcase the video and thus promote the record. I've decided to hold off on getting the files, and get the album at some point in physical format instead.
After some superficial listening, it sounds really good. Lasse Marhaug's work can be noticed and these mellow songs are better overall because of it. Hopefully at some point something from the experimental side of Thurston, can also get the Marhaug treatment.
