Moments Worth Listening For
The relentless, locking groove of the bass and drums on Nipple to the Bottle that refuses to resolve.
The cinematic, sprawling narrative feel of The Apple Stretching as it evokes a waking New York City.
The sharp, rhythmic contrast between the deadpan vocals and the bright percussion on Cry Now, Laugh Later.
