I dunno how you feel about downloading, but I uploaded the Colour Of Spring for another member yesterday, so if you want just PM me and I'll send it your way.
I'll probably try to pick it up cheap at some point but cheers for the offer.

Re: 'Hospice', yeah one of my faves of last year too. I think 'Two' and 'Kettering' tower over the other tracks a bit but it still works well listened to as a whole. Does seem to have a "bookish" feel of unraveling like a story, which is obviously what they were after. Initially I was a bit wary of a band gauche enough to call the opening and closing tracks 'Prologue' and 'Epilogue' but they get away with it. Pretty dark subject matter, hope for his/their sakes it isn't autobiographical.
