Moments Worth Listening For
The iconic descending chromatic scale that opens the title track, instantly setting the template for surf rock.
The chugging, locomotive rhythm section on Night Train that mimics the mechanical pulse of a rail journey.
The sudden, sharp tremolo picking that cuts through the mix during the bridge of the more aggressive tracks.
