Moments Worth Listening For

The transformation of 'Junk' into a delicate chamber piece that highlights its inherent melodic melancholy.

The sweeping ten-minute orchestral arc of 'Spiral' where the themes build with cinematic patience.

The way 'Maybe I’m Amazed' loses its rock grit but gains a haunting, fragile dignity through the Loma Mar Quartet's strings.
