Between the Heart and the Synapse

Between the Heart and the Synapse is the first album from Boston, Massachusetts-based band The Receiving End of Sirens, released in 2005 on Triple Crown Records. Between is considered a concept album due to its repetition of lyrical and musical motifs in an effort to unify the body of work as a whole.
