art rock, but also includes many significant elements of chamber pop ("Gold Day", "More Yellow Birds"), shoegaze and dream pop ("Piano Fire", "King of Nails", "Comfort Me"), chamber music ("It's a Wonderful Life", "Devil's New", "Babies on the Sun") and even industrial ("Dog Door"). Sonic Cinema All of the album's songs were made into music videos by various filmmakers, such as the Quay Brothers, Garine Torossian, Grant Gee, and Guy Maddin. These became the subject of the October 26, 2001, episode of the Sundance Channel series Sonic Cinema. The Sonic Cinema: Sparklehorse episode included the following music videos, with their respective directors or talent. "Maxine" ("Gold Day EP" song) – Scott Minor (Drummer, Sparklehorse) "Gold Day" – Danny Clinch "Dog Door"/"Heloise" – Brothers Quay "Morning Hollow" – Braden King "Comfort Me" – Peter Ortel "Devil's New" – Grant Gee "Maxine," "King of Nails" – Jem Cohen "Piano Fire" – Rodney Ascher "It's a Wonderful Life" – Guy Maddin "Babies on the Sun" – Gariné Torossian Reception AllMusic called it Sparklehorse's "most open and direct work yet" and "a noticeably more focused effort. Though it lacks Good Morning Spider's sprawling brilliance, it's possibly Linkous' most effective, and affecting, collection of songs." Legacy The song "Piano Fire" was featured in the 2015 video game Life Is Strange.
