 ... sounds to enjoy here: Prelude : The album starts so gently, it takes nearly a minute before you can really hear anything. A gentle throb of a keyboard sound builds with rising notes almost as though you are entering a church, rounded out by the introduction of some strings. This then gives way to the first proper song. The hazards of love part one : Based around a lovely 12 string riff, it lays down the theme for the rest of the album.
