Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the somber piano intro to the driving, hopeful chorus of Notbroken.
The title track's slow-burn build that culminates in a dense, layered wall of guitars and strings.
The raw, stripped-back vulnerability of the acoustic version of Home that closes the record.
