Moments Worth Waiting For
The bright, interlocking guitar melodies in the opening of Bring You Back that signal a cleaner sonic direction.
The anthemic, gang-vocal energy during the bridge of End of the Underground.
The shift to a more vulnerable, mid-tempo pace on Picket Fences that anchors the album's emotional core.
