Regions Less Parallel collects Auburn Lull's Dual Group EP (a split EP with Mahogany), the North Territorial/Van der Graaf 7", soem compilation-only tracks, along with a few new tracks.

The new tracks are largely there to create a flow between tracks (think: Rising Meriddean/Sinking Meriddean off of Cast from the Platform.) and while enjoyable, aren't really much to talk about.

The Dual Group EP tracks are stunning in that they manage to out-slowdive Slowdive themselves. "Watching" is truly the highlite of the disc.

The North Territorial/Van der Graaf tracks are good, but largely experimental and probably resemble ambient music moreso than Auburn Lull's other releases.

Lastly, the compilation tracks are quite good. They're culled from sessions from both of the band's albums, Alone I Admire and Cast from the Platform. While they would've been out of place on their parent albums, they're still quite good.

As far as compilations go, the material is exceptional. My only disappointment was that the new tracks weren't really anything other than incidental music. However, compiling the rare, vinyl-only Dual group EP and the North Territorial single on CD make it worth buying.
