The piano track is a mangled version of the already-mangled piano from the previous song ("The Saucers Arrive").
The plan was to try to improvise in a way that was somehow rhythmically compatible with the skittering piano track. The guitar track…

The Hammered Dulcimer melody haunted me for weeks, but it didn't come together until Jamie played drums on it. Takes a long time to pay off, but I hope if you hang with it, you'll dig where it gets too.
