The most surprising tracks are the strongest: “The Kids Were Wrong” is their most jangly indie-pop to date, with surfy power-pop riffs; “Punctum” is a nostalgic, finger-picked ballad where Nouvion sings, “It’s not enough to live your past through photographs uncovered.” Their lush sonics get twangy on “Bonfire,” indicative of their self-proclaimed Emmylou Harris influence.
