Moments Worth Listening For
The way the organ swells into a mournful roar during the bridge of God Says Nothing Back.
The driving, muscular guitar riff that kicks off The Beautiful Side of Somewhere, signaling a harder edge.
The transition into the optimistic, shimmering acoustic textures of All Things New Again.
