Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring transition from hushed folk to abrasive junkyard percussion on My Little Basquiat.
The elder Timmins' voice emerging through a haze of strings to narrate the centerpiece track Mountain.
Margo's voice dropping to a near-silent whisper on the final refrain of Brand New World.
