This is song from ∆’s (pronounced: Alt-J) debut album, An Awesome Wave.

“Breezeblocks” tells the story of a desperate man’s attempts to win over his love’s affections again as she has grown disillusioned, and the desperate yearning and longing that comes with love lost.

The song is inspired by the band’s love of Where The Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak.

Newman explained to Interview Magazine:

The song is about liking someone who you want so much that you want to hurt yourself and them, as well. We related that idea to Where The Wild Things Are, which we all grew up reading, where in the end the beasts say ‘Oh, please don’t go! We’ll eat you whole! We love you so!,’ that they would threaten cannibalism to have that person – it’s a powerful image."
