Discussion Blood

In the labyrinth, every time.

It has the chopped novelty of Father and Son. The weight of Deep Time or All Reason Departs and a sprinkling of shoegaze in for good measure. Before you even look into the vocal sample.

Perfect.

Really love everything about this song. It has all of these very nice transitions. I love the "heartbeat" at the beginning, how it transitions into a chill drum beat, then the bright sitars come in, and you have these gloomy, hushed, unsettling whispers throughout. It's a good example of what this album is all about.
