    I've always felt that Bronson's lyrical style is a poetic display of an intricate mind. One with so much to say, but never enough time to say it. He can tell a whole story and evoke an array of feelings in just a bar or two. It's a wildly beautiful form of art he's so casually pulling off.
    The band here compliments it perfectly. Emphasising the right chords and giving a sort of 'bounce' to the multitude of stories Bronson is telling. Waves you could say.
