Moments Worth Waiting For
the sudden bloom of shimmering synthesizers that elevates the chorus of Starz into a space-age anthem
the crunchy, distorted guitar riff on Heart Attack Kid that recalls the raw energy of his early grunge days
the vulnerable, stripped-back piano opening of Only A Day that showcases his signature melodic earnestness
