"Tracing the scars, even and cold, as we both become older."

After work today I was preparing for the walk through the freshly fallen snow to the train station and I decided that Elbow's Asleep in the Back would be a good winter album. Turns out I was right. The cold and crisp lethargy of the album matched nicely with the nearly pristine white landscape and the muffled sounds of traffic around me. Particularly striking for me was the seven plus minute epic "Newborn", hitting me in a way it had never done before. I'm not suggesting that you need to find your own winter wonderland to walk around in while listening to it, but it might help. Download it below. (Click here to but the album from Amazon)
