Moments Worth Waiting For
The intricate dual-guitar harmony that opens the title track, setting a melodic rather than aggressive tone.
The sudden shift in intensity during the bridge of South Street, 1 AM, where the drums lock into a driving, propulsive groove.
The way the vocals soften into a near-whisper during the final minute of Next Day Flight before the guitars swell back in.
