Operating under the stylized moniker ana_thema, the veteran British rock group delivers a direct narrative sequel to their beloved 2001 record 'A Fine Day to Exit'. The concept album integrates prominent electronic beats, rich string sections, and brooding piano interludes to tell the cinematic story of a disappearing protagonist. It won Album of the Year at the Progressive Music Awards.
