Moments Worth Listening For
The rapid-fire celebrity name-dropping in High School Never Ends that perfectly captures the mid-2000s zeitgeist.
The transition from the self-aware humor of I'm Gay into the more sincere, mid-tempo yearning of Why Don't I Miss You.
The massive, multi-tracked vocal harmonies that elevate the chorus of Epiphany into a genuine power-pop anthem.
