It's the musical equivalent of a good cry in the rain followed by a warm cup of tea.

A grand, cinematic exploration of vulnerability that finds beauty in the wreckage of broken relationships.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The massive, percussive build-up in High Hopes that feels like a physical release of tension.
The raw, cracking vulnerability in the opening vocal line of All I Want.
The way the piano and strings intertwine during the final minute of All My Friends to create a sense of communal longing.
