Moments Worth Listening For

The explosive opening drum fill of Driving All Night that immediately signals a return to their classic high-speed form.

The communal gang-vocal swell during the bridge of Rebel Song that feels like a call to arms for aging punks.

The surprisingly tender and melodic descent of the closing track Up To Us, which trades speed for emotional weight.
