Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive entrance of the horn section on 'How You Like Me Now?' that instantly transforms the track into a strutting anthem.
The spaghetti-western whistle and ominous acoustic strumming that builds the tension in the opening of 'Short Change Hero'.
The raw, distorted vocal strain in 'Oh No! Not You Again!!' that feels like a live performance in a cramped, sweaty club.
