The opening track When the Stars Fall from Grace begins with chiming acoustic and electric guitars and describes a fateful love affair where nothing seems enough for the lover. Strings, backing harmonies and flutes give the track a gentle ambience, but the chords have a sense of urgency.

Deep Sea Diver is probably the most well known Heifervescent track, and was at one stage, for a short time, one of the most listened to Creative Commons tracks in the world. A hard chugging baseline joins stabbing guitars as the distorted vocals sing about a couple locking themselves into a shelter to sit through the impending chaos.

Kaleidoscope begins slowly and gently with just vocals, electric piano and flutes. The vocals explain the reserved beauty of a lover and plans to make everything ok. The chorus is joined by tremelo guitars and strings with a pleasant low key melody.

We've got to plug you in speaks to a vacant lifeless person who simply needs a kick up the ass to get on with their lives. The minor key and distorted vocals, gives the track a slightly distressed feel.

Stop Following Me could be relevant to anyone who's being followed, hounded, stalked by sinister people but it was actually just a song about a wasp. A slow paced ballad with piano and full orchestral parts.

It's Coming Together is a more light hearted love song with melancholy piano riffs and bells. The chorus is full of optimism and pop naivety.

Out of Tune brings the mood down again - a slow waltzing number with the pain of failure and self loathing. The song goes from quiet reflection to crashing guitar solos and back again.

Counting without Numbers is possibly the poppiest track on the album with a catchy guitar melody, and approaches the subject of sheer confusion, when you're in a situation that just defies logic? like counting without numbers.

Victim of Crime is a big slow lamenting song asking all the questions after a lover has left. Big strings and woodwinds give the track some classic moments, but the crashing guitars and backing vocals keep the track edgy.

The final track - And the Pond Life Flourished is made of a big repeating guitar riff and vocals that try and justify the loss of the lover by playing the memories down and remembering all the pain. The song plods along slowly and aggressively but maintains a catchy chorus and vocal layers.
