The cover looks similar to 'Sketches of Spain'.

Hi Barry, in one word different, songs are forceful, poetic in parts, supporting music can be atmospheric.
The notes on the back cover say in part "The Invisible Light is a song cycle concerned with the reality that we have been the subjects of over a century of electronic programming. It is trance music. It is folk music and electronic music. It is tribal and global.......... ", it goes on to talk about how we as individuals have lost our individuality and through social force(propaganda/media/advertising etc), and the inability to discern fact from fiction. So i would say it is and attempt to observe us and the state of humanity at this point in time and the damage we are doing to ourselves, each other and the planet, without any real understanding and certainly no control.
I would read https://tboneburnett.com/bio/ which talks about the most recent release, "The Invisible Light" trilogy is/was intended to be a comment of the human condition and how we, the Human Race' are being taken over by our own technology. Sounds a bit arty I know but bear with it there are some good points made in the albums. In case you are not aware of him T-Bone Burnett is a well known recording artist, record producer, guitarist, and songwriter, and has worked with some very famous artists, he was a guitarist in Bob Dylan's band during the 1970s.
Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.
