    "A little riff thing" is probably the greatest understatement ever understated.

    The odd timing of the very first guitar riff is what hooked me in. The lyrics hit me in a personal way. (At the time I would often wake up in a cold sweat. But I don't talk about it anymore, so back to my point...) Before the lyrics. Before the drums. Just the way that guitar comes in. Like it's finishing a sentence that you didn't hear start. I was smitten. I wasn't expecting genuine musical chops from a 'youtube' band. How did they make a song THIS repetitive, but SO re-listenable? It shouldn't be possible. No matter how hard Brother Michael kicks during the key change. It violates the laws of thermodynamics. But it's just that good. I was forced to recognize that my model of reality was merely a hallucination. Now I know that magic is real.

    My mind has been blown. Knowing nothing about the band as I only found out about them yesterday, from the video's I was convinced they were an American deep south group, my complete surprise to find a softly spoken fellow Brit in the tutorial.

    I had some epiphanies listening to this album. On acid and quickly became a member, not necessary to enjoy this amazing album but I'd be lying if I said I didn't have an otherworldly experience because of it. This song struck a particular soul chord, great work from the church. Follow the path.
