After Chaplin’s rehab stint (detailed in the compilation’s liner notes, though not explicitly in the music), Strangeland was a deliberate retreat to the piano-and-voice intimacy of Hopes and Fears . and “Sovereign Light Café” are nostalgia-drenched, the latter named after a real café in Bexhill-on-Sea where the band wrote early songs.
