Moments Worth Listening For
The rhythmic chugging and percussive exhales on The Train that perfectly simulate a locomotive gaining speed.
The startlingly beautiful shift to female pronouns in The 23rd Psalm, reframing the divine as a nurturing mother.
The dense, interlocking vocal polyphony of the Voicestra ensemble on Common Threads that creates a wall of human sound.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
