On `Say Demesne’ we hear something akin to the scratchy guitar sounds of Modest Mouse. The song is excellent, and Marr gives his strongest vocal performance on the album, with his voice possessing the same rich quality as Richard Hawley. Indeed, the Hawley comparison doesn’t end there; this is a track that could have easily fit onto last year’s Standing At The Sky’s Edge, with its epic guitars and echoic keyboards creating an almost otherworldly atmosphere.
