Moments Worth Listening For

The heavy, distorted electric guitar riff that crashes into the title track, signaling a massive departure from his acoustic roots.

The hypnotic, extended didgeridoo and drum interplay on 'Shiver' that creates a trance-like state over seven minutes.

The way the slide guitar on 'Uncle' wails like a siren over a deep, rhythmic pulse.
