Moments Worth Waiting For
The choral, multi-tracked vocal harmonies provided by Robin Pecknold that open We Can’t Be Beat, signaling a new, communal warmth.
The propulsive, driving drum beat of the title track that feels like a victory lap for a band that survived the decade.
The delicate, finger-picked intimacy of Southern Heart where the vocals drop to a vulnerable, close-mic whisper.
