Moments Worth Listening For

The explosive transition in 'Trades and Tariffs' where the acoustic strumming suddenly locks into a frantic, driving drum beat.

The hypnotic, interlocking rhythmic patterns on 'Beards' that feel like a clockwork mechanism made of wood.

The way the vocals drift into a hazy, melodic lull during the extended outro of 'The Ball'.
