This album flows like a single piece, in a calm and restrained, yet unsettling way, and the rhythmic content ramps up towards the end. As the album progresses it becomes centred around the human voices which give this work much of its special character. In reflection of restraint, interestingly, James, who is a virtuoso saxophonist, is very sparing with his solos, giving them a different kind of impact. On alto and tenor, they are present most clearly towards the ends of 'Statues', 'Year of the Snake', 'Woken up by Dogs', and mid-way through 'Our Lungs'. Genre-wise, the album appears to occupy its own space, the strings possibly evoke 1970s leftfield BBC documentary soundtracks \u2013 the other closest reference point might be the post-Henry Cow body of music, maybe News From Babel.\r
