The Science of Falling front cover

This album has influences of Nick Cave and Steve Kilbey, especially the first four tracks. The title track is a semi-instrumental which has a definite science fiction sound. Guitar pedals and keyboards, bass, drums, sampled sitars and vocals all seem to be used in unorthodox ways here to evoke imagery of a passionate heartbeat running through a cold technological landscape.
‘Shadowman’ has a sampled western guitar riff and a memorable tune with dark imagery being forged by middle eastern wind instruments.
Apart from the first four and another two originals toward the end, The Science of Falling has some cover versions from a diverse range of songwriters including Tex Perkins, Tori Amos, Marty Wilson-Piper, Kate Bush and Carol King.
