Earthless discography

In particular, From the Ages was cited as one of the best albums of 2013 by a number of publications but the length of its title track (the band's longest yet) was seen as its primary weakness.

[4] Allmusic reviewer Thom Jurek remarked that "Droning, thudding space jams are Earthless' trip du jour, and they do it shockingly well."

He praised Isaiah Mitchell's "stellar" guitar playing, Mario Rubalcaba's "beat-heavy atmospherics", and Mike Eginton's "repetitive, hypnotic" bass lines while noting the Black Sabbath influences in "Lost in the Cold Sun" and calling the album one of the best in the stoner rock genre.

"[6] Keith Carman, reviewing for Exclaim!, noted that only those with the patience for long songs or those in "altered states of consciousness" could tolerate the album, but described it as "quite the interesting celestial ride".

[8] Stylus Magazine stated that "Godspeed" and "Sonic Prayer" suffered from redundancy, as reviewer Charles Robbins said that the group cease to develop the two songs beyond a certain point, but praised the cover of "Cherry Red" and gave the album a B−.

Club named it one of the best metal albums of that decade, describing the material as "something close to the Platonic ideal of heavy rock".

Jeff Treppel of Outburn magazine rated the album 9 out of 10, calling it "close to an hour and a half of intensive jammage" and "a hypnotic listening experience".

[13] Michael Mannix for the North Coast Journal said Live at Roadburn demonstrated Earthless' greatest strength and driving force – Rubalcaba's drumming, which he said did not always come across on the band's studio albums.

He noted that the performance of "From the Ages" was shortened by 10 minutes, and suggested this was done for the sake of the vinyl release, but said that it did not impact the album harmfully.

[14] Reviewing for the Austin Chronicle, Raoul Hernandez stated "Blue" is a song "which arrives at Cream's crossroads in three minutes and continues for another 17", and described the album overall, which he rated the full 4 stars out of 4, as "One small step for the San Diego trio, one Hendrix Hail Mary ("Sonic Prayer") for mankind".

[15] Rating it 7.7 out of 10, the San Diego CityBeat noted that the album would appeal to death metal fans and Deadheads alike, but it would fail to satisfy those seeking a resolution to the music.

Earthless Additional personnel From the Ages, their third full-length studio album, was released on October 8, 2013 by Tee Pee Records.

[36] Mitchell has noted that despite the lack of other atmospheric elements such as sights and smells, one still hears the uniqueness of a particular Earthless concert in a recording as no two performances are alike.

He further explained, especially with regard to the band's hiatus, "Part of it is because we got some good recordings and we havenʼt been able to go into the studio, so itʼs nice to keep putting stuff out and let people know that weʼre still around.
