lyrics
The darkness is absolute
The silence total
Only Death moves
Between the worlds
In the moments between time
Watching
Always in the right place
Always at the right time
For the big deaths
And the small
The ended friendships
The lost loves
The old, the young
The Brothers, the Sisters
Parents, sons, daughters
All succumb
The absolute is silent
The total is darkness
Always between the worlds
Out of time
Death moves

Great record. wears it's influences proudly ..but retains a sliver of identity that is uniquely British and has a northern feel to it..I think that these geographic musical vignettes are realy evocotive of northern Newtown Uber estates and satellite communities..I hope this translates to a wider audience for him...he deserves the attention. give him his due .NOW . christopherogley
Cinematic jazz from this French group that ventures far beyond stylistic borders and into modern classical and more. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 21, 2022
I was seeking a comprehensive update, both in terms of quantity and quality, regarding the music I greatly enjoyed during the mid-1980s. I discovered an abundance of options. sweetsweetmusic
