One of the best tracks off of Kill For Love, especially dig the segue from this to Broken Mirrors.
The meaning of the track itself is interesting because it juxtaposes the end of a relationship with a generalized solitude, with a hint of the whole "technology makes you asocial" malarkey that a bunch of bands are using nowadays (St. Vincent, Arcade Fire), but with less of the heavy-handedness and much more resignation: whereas Arcade Fire believes they have a musical way out of the issues they talk about, Chromatics and Johnny Jewel succumb to the dilation of time and streaks of synth that infect their post-punk, referring to synthpop as a cultural event rather than as a musical tradition.
