"This album marked the start of our adventure, the entry into this very different world of sound. The title is like giving someone directions: 'You will find us Behind the Gardens, Behind the Wall, Under the Tree...'

In the shelter of this creative 'womb', it was easy to lose track of time and space." Read more on Last.fm.
