A weary but resilient sense of belonging and nostalgia for a changing hometown.

Moments Worth Listening For

the transition in 'east on main' where the driving rhythm gives way to a communal, porch-side vocal melody

the way the final track 'now' builds from a restrained, rhythmic tension into a desperate, shouting climax

the interplay between the clean, jangling guitar lines and tim barry's most weathered vocal performance on 'the falls'
