A pivotal pivot from dusty country-folk to a harder, electric-edged California rock. Polished harmonies meet a new, restless grit perfect for the open road.

Moments Worth Listening For
The gritty slide guitar entrance on Good Day in Hell marking a shift toward a heavier sound.
The transition from the gentle piano of Ol' 55 into the soaring, multi-part vocal harmonies of the chorus.
The tight, funky bassline and rhythmic snap that anchors the title track's paranoid energy.
