This was a dreadfully delightful album, and the sheer weight of the songs, infused with supporting emotion, leaves the listener feeling drained, and hopeless. It was an intense listening experience, in terms of each song piling on more and more burden on your already frail back. Take a trip into the desperate mind of “Elegy (a poem of serious reflection, typically a lament for the dead)” and you will see what is on the other side.
