    'Unravelling' is Villareal's fourth studio album and was originally released in 2013. The band decided to follow their heart and delve into a truly late night experience. Citing Talk Talk, David Sylvian and Wilco as inspirations the songs were pieced toggether in various late night recording sessions with contributors asked to add parts with only the most basic of musical information!

    US tastemakers DIVIDE AND CONQUER loved the album and rated it 4.3/5, read the review by following the link below:

about

The riff that leads this track was written in a cold room in Reading one Sunday morning. It stayed in my head and eventually became the jump-off point for 'DAMAGED'
Again, Luke Ellis brings the song to life with his magic Cello and special mention to Sue Marsh for the Melodica and Recorder parts as well. The samples were drunkenly discovered on my I-Pod as I staggered back late at night from Reading Festival, having just watched THE CURE headline the Saturday evening. A few hours later i awoke with that riff and 'Damaged' was born...

lyrics

Ocean lay me down
My world run aground
Ocean lay me down


I'm not here today
I'm not here today

Daylight pass me through
My world torn in two
Daylight pass me through

My before and after
Your tears will bring disaster


(Words & Music Simon Parker)
