  The guitars arrive in overlapping waves, each line carrying its own emotional charge without crowding the others out. “Perfume Garden” and “Intrigue in Tangiers” build patiently, trusting repetition to generate momentum rather than relying on obvious crescendos. Mark Burgess sings with urgency, but there’s also distance in his voice, as if he’s narrating from slightly outside the scene. It’s expansive music that never loses its sense of tension.
