It's a great album, and one that I don't play enough in its entirety. I usually find myself skipping "Pater Noster" though
Sacrilege!
Its a great, atmospheric track. The Human Host really gives the vocals a great, cavernous feel. The drum beat does make it sound like a dance track though.
One of my favourites from it is Night Suit. And the bonus track A Lifting Sky (on the 1993 reissue).
I'm on the bonus tracks now. Really like "A Long Time" and "This Jungle".
For longer than I can remember,
This Jungle had been my alltime favourite JF song. I never understood why it was put on a B-side. The guitaring on it is brilliant. Same with Night Suit.
I wonder if the "Swimmer" tracks were inspired by the Burt Lancaster film...
Which
one ? Look closely at his film listings
Currently listening to
The Drive EP. It just arrived in the mail an hour ago!
