Moments Worth Listening For
The frantic, polyrhythmic percussion explosion that opens 'Another World', signaling a complete departure from his previous rock sound.
The stark, questioning piano chords of 'Real Men' that challenge 1980s gender norms with biting lyrical precision.
The slow-burn crescendo of 'A Slow Song' where the frustration with loud, mindless music transforms into a soulful, seven-minute plea for intimacy.
