Hah, seems like a random track. I'm curious what jumped out to you.

It was randomly put in a radio playlist spotify made for me. I was told the band was good, so I heard the fox, the crow, and the cookie, then january 1979, then 9:27 am, so by the time i heard dormouse I didn't know what to expect.

The song itself, it's just weird and dark. It could just be me, but some songs just grab me. It's, maybe not cinematic is the right word. But it's powerful, it feels like something is happening over the course of it. And I like songs like that, especially apocalyptic types. Another good example is The End of the World by Aphrodite's Child. It just puts me in a mood. Set next to a folksy jam about a bird stealing pastries, I was just really interested in it and the guy writing it.
