Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive transition from the eerie intro Irritation into the double-bass gallop of Sole Survivor.
The theatrical, almost vaudevillian vocal delivery and swaggering riff during the chorus of Perfect Gentleman.
The soaring, high-register vocal hook in Where the Rain Grows that signaled the band's return to form.
