"Songs About Leaving" is a deeply personal and relatable album for me. It captures the essence of a difficult break up perfectly and oozes pain and beauty with every track. The extreme amounts of sadness and melancholy within this album put me to tears the first time I listened to it and it's maintained a top spot in my album rotation even now.

It has a unique mixture of synths and real instruments with the percussive work by David Kendrick being a massive highlight. The dark atmospheres of "Girl with Basket of Fruit" are combined with the more upbeat sound of "Fabulous Muscles" making 13" a must listen to album.
