Moments Worth Listening For
The cinematic string swell that opens Magnificent (She Says) like a wide-angle lens hitting a landscape.
The hypnotic, repetitive drum loop on Gentle Storm that provides a surprisingly rhythmic backbone to the track.
The eight-minute title track's slow evolution from a sparse beat into a dense, polyrhythmic orchestral climax.
