Moments Worth Listening For
The mechanical, chugging industrial riff of The Future of Warfare mimicking the first tanks
The unexpected, frantic Hammond organ solo in The Red Baron that captures the chaos of a dogfight
The haunting transition from the symphonic climax of track 10 into the pure choral mourning of In Flanders Fields
