Beginning at Home, you are lulled into a sense of relaxation as My Big Nurse comforts you for the upcoming jaunt. I Feel My Stuff straight away transports you into an imposing forest of psyche-breaking sound, leading you to contemplate what the hell is going on in Everything That Happens. After a moment of self-realisation and knowing the journey you must undertake to return home, you know that Life Is Long and that you are indeed "half way home" and "have nothing to lose."

Up ahead you hear a rushing of water, and before you can even react The River begins you on your somewhat torrential final half of the trip. Strange Overtones bops and funks with structured abandon; Wanted For Life is jagged yet slick, but by no means an obstacle to avoid; and One Fine Day drifts you into a stream of consciousness before Poor Boy quickly clouds your thoughts and makes you reconsider exactly who you are and how you ended up in your current situation.

Luckily though, The Lighthouse illuminates the way home and provides a calm conclusion to your journey. Okay, so it may not be quite this epic, but if you need to calm your heart Byrne, mix it with a dose of Eno and you'll be feeling great in no time - guaranteed.
