Moments Worth Listening For

The transition from the atmospheric opening of Fireworks at Dawn into the crushing momentum of Lungs Like Gallows.

The intricate dual-guitar interplay during the bridge of Family Tradition that showcases the band's technical growth.

The raw, unvarnished vocal delivery in the final minute of Blackout where the production strips back to emphasize the desperation.
