John Grant is obviously a man with many haunting personal issues. But luckily he has an awesome musical talent too. It is a really heartfelt experience to listen to this album. The lyrics on a lot of the tracks are not really "broadcast friendly" so you won't hear the majority of it on radio. It probably has a "Marmite Factor"; Some people might hate it, for me it's one of the best albums of recent times.
I bought this after listening to Desert Island Disks, where a respected record producer said that the track Marz was the pinnacle of great production technique. It is indeed and it's a great album for listening half a dozen times. Problem is that after a while it gets "samey" - the music, the message, the emotion. FFS cheer up man!
