The album originated in a daydream, in which Tom Jenkinson envisioned a rock band performing a concert against the backdrop of a large, glowing coathanger. The performance quickly became surreal: among other things, a river forces the band to kayak whilst performing; the guitarist is able to accelerate or decelerate time at will; and every drum in the drummer's kit begins to switch places with each another.[8] As such, the majority of the album consists of Jenkinson's own version of jazz fusion, threaded through with classical guitar, math rock and funk recordings.

gollark: You could probably use the keyboard mouse event thing and some maths to allow you to click on a block in the design to select/delete/whatever it.
gollark: This is very cool. You could use the 3D visualization bit for lots of things, like... planning buildings? Spying on things behind walls with block scanners?
gollark: "old great green Swedish" dragon is valid, "Swedish green great old dragon" seems *wrong* somehow.
gollark: Oh, this reminds me, apparently English has some fixed ordering for different kinds of adjectives which native speakers don't notice.
gollark: You can also just use words/grammar differently to other people.
