"I mean, some people could just appretiate music because it has a "good rythm", maybe listening but not understanding. You have to listen this carefully, everything, lyrics and music, no doubt it has a dark atmosphere and some slow tempos, but overall it is impressive and has good consistent with their previous works (White Lies, Kasmodiah). "Over and done" (the song) is like a long-way obscure travel after something changed your heart suddenly. It has some drumbs and beats but that is just part of the song, maybe the most "contemporary song" DL has made. Actually this song was in German Charts, not is just somelike danceable but good lyrics.

This is not an alternative-like album. It puts some more emphasis on strings and slow sounds, and of course the deep voice of Alexander Veljanov. If you're new to DL I suggest you first White Lies, then Kasmodiah and then this one. You'll love this band if you like real music, not just only "sounds"."
