I've been trying to get into SW's later work, but I just can't, although this latest is actually easier on the ear for me. As much as I love his singing on Scott 1-4 and a few later releases, I find it way too lugubrious on Tilt and The Drift, and it prevents me from appreciating the music.

I played the last track from this on the radio the other week, and I'm a little disappointed that no-one called the station to complain that they wouldn't be able to sleep.
