Moments Worth Listening For
The studio version of the title track where the vocal leaps into a glass-shattering falsetto over a driving rhythm section.
The seven-minute live expansion of Throwing Fire at the Sun where the cello and guitar reach a feverish, distorted peak.
The intimate, breathy delivery of Truth and Bone where the lyrics about stripping down feel physically close.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
