The music of the song sounds quite experimental in relation to other tracks from this album and thus it stands out and is remembered. Electronic beats provide the composition with an uninterrupted rolling groove with elements of trip hop and a hot sand guitar accompanies the calm and gentle vocals.
The singer shows a pleasant hypnotic tone which fascinates with its lyrics and intonation. The song flows gracefully and elegantly, representing a symbiosis of shoegaze and dream pop.
In the music video 'Southend Vic' the full story unfolds against the backdrop of the sea and the pier. The main characters of the tragedy are sailors chasing a desperate man. The end of this story is logical, so it is full of tense and emotional scenes that are synchronously intertwined with the motif of the song.
