Moments Worth Listening For

The sudden, theatrical shift in energy on track 5, Hot Goblin, where the playful title meets a driving, staccato piano rhythm.

The vulnerable, stripped-back opening of track 1, Scared of the Dark, setting a stark and intimate tone for the album.

The frantic, fast-paced vocal delivery on track 8, Soup!, which packs a burst of manic energy into its brief runtime.
