The British visual artist Mathew Sawyer play sometimes popy, sometimes rocky, sometimes punky chamber folk music with his band, The Ghost. He said 3 years before after the second album: „I wanted to make a happy record, but it didn’t really work. The next one will be so much fun… [laughs]. “ On his third album he analyses the relationship between Thanatos and Hypnos. They are twin brothers, personificators of the Death and the Sleep in the Greek mythology. Their parents, Erebos (Darkness) and Nyx (Night) born from the Chaos. And they have some children more: Moros (Doom), Momus (Mockery), Oizys (Misery), Nemesis (Revenge), Eris (Discord), Apate (Deceit), etc. Hey! What they have brought up their children for? I call the court of guardians at once.

The recordings were made in his home hand in hand with his everyday living. „The sound of cars come through the windows, the phone rings, floorboards creak. These sounds all played an important role in making this record. Studios are quiet and lifeless.”
