The Devils dabble their paintbrushes of wonderment in what could be "Tribal ambient" esque textures. And space is formidable. Clarion 89 versh.

Perfect, thoughtful, volcanic, placid, all of the above. Melty goopy and funky. Tells a story in sound painting. I really like this song... has that LLR, let it grow uber earnest Barlow thing in spades. The theatrics on this splendid version take Indy to giddy new heavens, the floor loses it for jerry, but then when don't they. Shout out to weir for a triple shot of great jams
