This album kinda was ignored by critics....if reviewed usually given a lukewarm (C average) rating. It really is good .. at least a B. It's definitely a grower. Honestly I can't say that 'Tomboy' is any better than this. Tomboy's few great tracks vs. an entire album of really good tracks. I think Avey has the edge.
@ancestors I always thought of it as more of a journey to the afterlife. Like one is crossing the river Styx in a glass bottomed boat. Of course, I say this with the belief that the thought that the next song (Ghost of Books) is about Orpheus and Eurydice.
This is one of my favorite tracks (though it's more of an interlude) on the whole album. I love the creepy distorted dialogue and the lonely piano. Seriously, this song has an aura/mood to it that sets my perspective on the entire album.

Perhaps this is what afterlife sounds like.
