Gravenhurst again prove their spirited eclecticism by aligning themselves with the pop rock of the British Invasion, but in a most decidedly non-commercial way.

Fires in Distant Buildings closes with a couple of Talbot's longest, most emotionally volatile pieces: "Song from Under the Arches" and "See My Friends" add up to just short of twenty minutes of music.

Fires In Distant Buildings might not blow the masses away, but that's a far, far cry from lulling them to sleep.

There's a track here called 'Animals' in which Nick Talbot, driven to distraction by the debauched masses, strolls down to the riverside and imagines not only himself being dragged underneath but also what his future assassin is up to.

Fires In Distant Buildings makes an excellent addition to Talbot's restless musical wanderings.
