i like "lost voices". nice guitar riff in the chorus. nothing fantstic, but a good song nonetheless.
"distractions" - "there is no love, only willing gentleness" is a fucking great line. the vocal effect in the verses reminds me of "buildings for dead people". and the bit before the chorus singing starts sounds really good, the chords just sounds quite whole. which is probably a shite way of describing it, but it makes sense to me.
"ostopolitik" - oooh, lovely piano. some nice guitar work too. but the piano definitely makes this song.
these instrumental b-sides always make me wonder if they either couldn't be bothered writing lyrics for them, though. i think i'd listen to them more if they were songs, rather than instrumentals.
"i'm leaving your for solitude" is good, but i already knew that.
"i know the numbers" will have to wait until i can acquire it another time. or get a vinyl player.
