A remarkably understated and slight album. Whilst impassioned and full of emotion, it never explodes. It is reserved and fragile. There is a delicate beauty to the tracks here. It feels as if the band are slowly and subtly revealing their anguish and pains, afraid to be too transparent or extrovert in their approach. I would go as far as use the word beautiful as there is a real beauty here. It is a restrained and hesitant beauty, but it is there, nevertheless. A slow, ethereal album that to some will seem to go nowhere. But under the elusive and unhurried delivery there is something quite special.
