Afterwards, “His hands Matched His Tongue” hits as my personal favorite song of the album. “The Pimp and the Priest” jumps into New Orleans Jazz territory with its crying trumpets and powerful vocals. Its chorus is especially good as it propels the song forward and to the ending. After that, “1878” comes in with its complex drum rhythms that support a wonderful melody.

The following song, “The Lake South,” is a short, almost jazzy, instrumental that leads to the next song “City Escape.” “City Escape” is a jarring change from the somber sound of the previous songs with its rock like riffs and hardcore drums that gives the listeners a taste of the musical capabilities of this band.
