Moments Worth Listening For
The sudden transition from a heavy rhythmic riff into a bright, syncopated saxophone solo in Earthsick.
The sarcastic spoken-word delivery during the bridge of The Dance That Broke My Jaw mocking mosh pit etiquette.
The nine-minute experimental sprawl of the closing track that devolves into a chaotic, horn-led jam session.
