What we noticed
- The album opens with a driving rhythm in 'APB' that sets a mid-tempo pace, which is maintained through the first half before shifting to more introspective tracks.
- Several songs feature layered instrumentation, including strings and harmonies, creating a rich sonic texture that supports the lyrical themes.
- The final track, 'The Shallow End', concludes with a gradual fade-out, leaving a lingering sense of reflection rather than a definitive end.

Known within its scene. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
