Wow, that guitar tone is really cool. You have a very original sound. At 0:49 your vocals overpower the music a tad bit. I love the vocals (backup and lead)! There are some really nice harmonies going on. Around 2:46 you have a cool keyboard part. And now a very nice lead. Once again, your tone is very cool. Overall yall have a damn fine song here.

God, these guys are good. That jangly guitar sets the stage for this song with that edgy, moody, beautiful riff. It creates a tension that is eased slightly when the second guitar joins in. But then it returns with a vengeance when the singer sings. This guy can flat-out deliver the goods. He knows his voice and he knows how to use it. It's got so much color and richness, he's dangerous. When he sings there is a sense of urgency, but a relaxed urgency. It's like the house is on fire and everyone else is rushing to get out, but he sits in his easy chair and say's, " go on without me, I want to finish this beer first." Very cool and very smooth. The female vocals add another sense of nonchallance as they casually sing as the world crashes in around them. This song feels like something is always about to blow up, like a ticking time bomb. Do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do. The lead guitar work is great and the surprise sax solo adds another layer of moody texture in a song that is already dripping with atmosphere. First-rate musicianship from everyone and top-notch production makes for one great package. God, these guys are good.

Good dynamic build initially. Great powerful bassline draws me in immediately. Smooth, charismatic and confident vocal line as well. I really dig the subtle, Incubus feel going on here with your harmonies. I like the part spoken, fully emotive melody and lyric line. And that soft tympanic boom mixed with the chime makes this one beautiful and imaginative. The touch of female vocals adds to the mystique of this one, almost giving them a gothic, church choir type of feel. This tune carries me away to somewhere else, and I like the trip I'm taking. Brilliant chill music, with tons of instrumental dynamic treats awaiting you around every corner. This song is aural sex. Right now I'm floating across a British churchyard in rural Scotland, a memory I have from long ago, looking down on the picturesque panorama below me. Thanks for the nostalgic trip and the imaginative nuances that allowed me to forget that I was reviewing and permitted me to merely leave my world for a few minutes and go somewhere else. It is a rare and special artist who can do this for me, and you guys are wonderful. Thanks for sharing this guys. Top notch all the way
