Are you sitting comfortably? Then we'll begin. This is a story of heartbreak, of depression, black, black humour and euphoric escape. It's a story about the delgados and how they came to make one of the greatest albums of this, or any other, year.
Our story begins, as all good stories should, with our main characters, the delgados - Alun Woodward (guitar/vocals), Emma Pollock (guitar vocals), Stewart Henderson (bass) and Paul Savage (drums). It's early 2001 and the band are nervous.
We've got to a point where we don't believe there's any light in peoples' character. Hate is all around but, in the end, love is the only thing that will save your life.
