I think the band overhyped Cardiff Afterlife during the promotion tour, touting it as being like a sequel to Design for Life. The instrumentation is great but I don't think the melody really hooks but to each their own. Askew Road is special though, on a drunk night that song still reduces me to tears. That Richey sample at the end is a killer.
Edit: after another listen, I'm struggling to fathom why this song was left off the album. It's damn god damn singular in their discography as well as being deeply personal. Fell in love in my first listen and probably in my top 3 b-sides. I need answers dammit!
