Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive 'do-do-do' vocal hook that anchors the chorus of Always Where I Need to Be.
The shift from sparse acoustic strumming to a full band swell in the bridge of See the Sun.
The driving, jagged guitar riff that propels Do You Wanna into its high-energy climax.
The vulnerable, stripped-back intimacy of the closing hidden track All Over Town.
