Moments Worth Listening For

The unsettling, hollow synth pads that open the title track, setting a ghostly tone for the entire EP.

The sudden, jarring transition into the forty-second instrumental 'The Other Side of the World' that feels like a transmission cut short.

The way 'Canada Haunts Me' ends the record on a note of unresolved, quiet dread with its sparse arrangement.
