Moments Worth Listening For

The explosive brass section arrival on In Walks Barbarella that pivots the album into pure space-funk.

The detailed recipe for Maryland crab cakes delivered as a rhythmic sermon on Hot Bottom Feeder.

The haunting, slow-burn slide guitar and gothic storytelling that closes the record on Lorelei.
