“Hermitage”

“My first thought when hearing this was Peter Murphy lamenting from within a robot. Seriously. I mean that in a good way though as I particularly care for the aesthetic of this song. Like all of the songs on this album it is enjoyable to listen to (this is perhaps my favourite) but also seems to express something in how it is presented. The almost robot like, unthinking, unreasoning, world clatters along and this haunting voice calls from inside, as we become quite aware of our situation.”
