On first listen, a gentle introductory track. On further listens, a devastating setting out of the coherent theme of one of the great albums of recent years. Though the history of the world is long, time flies and eventually nature's end game approaches. Standing on a balcony, perhaps at night, still and attuned to nature the truth of this momentum can now be felt and faced - an apocalypse from which none can escape to paraphrase Phillip Larkin.
The music on this song matches the meaning and feeling of the lyrics more than any song i have ever heard before. I think.
