Driving drums and chugging bass/guitar. feels like the next stage post track 6 more self empowerment and drive forward. + +-Track 8: Roundabout +Intersting track. Kind of a mixture of 70's, Jewel, Dixie Chicks. heavy looping again this time with more of the steel drum 70's sound. Harkens to Beatles a good bit + +- Track 9: Ark of the Covenant +Much darker opening, especially after the previous. Familar tones with tinny guitar/banjo sound. Again more connected to 5 & 6 than the rest. + +- Track 10: Best Laid Plans +Energy level has been pretty consistent at this point over the past 3/4 songs.
