Data Insight
Ten tracks, both of them on all ten, seven with nobody else. It is the most tightly written thing in their catalogue and it is also the one nobody bought, which is not a coincidence: no guest singers means no extra names on the credits and no voice to sell it on.
Zephyr came out on XL in December 2009, three months after Scars, and runs 33 minutes. It is quiet and mostly instrumental, and it did not chart anywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions Zephyr
Who wrote Zephyr?
Felix Buxton and Simon Ratcliffe on all ten tracks, seven of them with no third writer.
Why did it come out so soon after Scars?
Scars was released in September 2009 and this followed in December, a companion piece rather than a proper follow-up.
How did it chart?
It did not chart on any of the columns the discography lists.
How did it sell?
The discography's sales and certification columns are both blank for this album.
Are engineering credits published?
No. Neither the album article nor the Discogs release names an engineer.
Where do the credits come from?
The album article prints no writers, so the per-track credits here are taken from the Discogs release.
How long is the album?
33:16 across ten tracks, much shorter than anything else they made.
