The 2008 album "Words and Music" saw Aqualung trading the baroque arrangements of his earlier work for a more direct, electronic-driven sound, exploring themes of communication and artistic creation. It was a deliberate shift toward a sparser, beat-oriented approach that stood in contrast to the grander productions of his previous albums.
- "Words and Music" was released on Okey Donkey Records.
- The album was released on October 7, 2008.
- Aqualung is the project of British artist Matt Hales.
