Moments Worth Listening For

The massive, sludge-thick guitar riff that anchors the opening of Save You, signaling a heavier direction than their 90s hits.

The transition from the 25-second punk blast of I Got My Pants On into the shimmering, melodic opening of Firefly.

The way the vocal harmonies in Blood on My Hands maintain a sweet, pop-inflected polish even as the instrumentation descends into chaos.
