Lift a Sail

Yellowcard

A pivot from pop punk to expansive stadium rock. Soaring violins meet heavy textures and lyrics of profound resilience and marital devotion.

It's the sound of the Ocean Avenue kids growing up and facing the real world with a heavy heart and a lot of hope.

A powerful, wide-screen exploration of resilience and devotion in the face of life-altering change.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The cinematic orchestral swell of the opening track 'Convocation' bleeding into the heavy, distorted riff of 'Transmission Home'.
The stripped-back, haunting vulnerability of 'MSK' where the violin takes on a ghostly, synthesized quality.
The final piano chords of 'California' closing the album with a sense of peaceful, sun-drenched finality.
