Moments Worth Listening For
The rhythmic interplay between sharp wood-block strikes and fluid vocal glissandos on Wood Song.
The transition from dense, layered vocal clusters to a single, piercing high note in the title track.
The way the silence between phrases on Ballade feels as heavy and intentional as the singing itself.
