Moments Worth Listening For
The swell of the City of Prague Philharmonic strings on the bridge of Hide, elevating the track from a simple ballad to a cinematic peak.
The intimate, close-mic acoustic guitar opening of Silence, where the breath between her vocal phrases is mixed as loud as the notes.
The driving, rhythmic acoustic-pop energy of Unafraid, where the vocal layering builds a defiant wall of sound in the chorus.
