Illusion, Coma, Pimp & Circumstance

Oh my God. I'm just hearing this for the first time. Its like all the jazz-funk-fusion noodlings of The Rainbow Children and N.E.W.S. never happened.

It sounds like a classic 80s track. I can't describe it. He hasn't done anything so stripped down in years. Those guitars are soooo "flangey".

I have to say, this is my favorite track so far. Early days with only 2 listens all the way through but track 2 definitely stands out for me.
All of my hang-ups have gone. How I wish you felt the same.

I like in this song when his voice gets all low and bitchy like Humpty Hump.

I only like the first 2 tracks of Musicology, this being the 2nd track...it's downhill from there...

Peaks and valleys. I'd say it's generally uphill from track 5.
