Moments Worth Listening For

The gravelly narration of Holy Joe bridging the gap between skeletal folk songs like a ghostly radio host.

The sudden, haunting harmonica swell in Drifter's Prayer that feels like a cold wind through an open window.

The way The Coral Island Killer shifts the mood into a tense, cinematic murder ballad with minimal percussion.
