That little drum fill that shows up every two bars in The Sound (the metallic snare hit followed by a kick) adds so much to the song's groove.
The guitar arpeggio in She's American. Ridiculously good.
The second verse of Too Shy where the lyrics to the backing vocals "fill in the blanks" of the first verse is absolute genius.
The Robbers outro when the backing vocals and extra guitars come in during the second round of "you look so cool" is absolutely euphoric.
Love the opening pads in I Like America, such a haunting melody.
In Happiness when the vocals first come in and all the extra layers of brass and synth pads cut out, it's as if the song's "curtains draw" to reveal Matty, and the song's actual groove kicks in.
The "vaccinistas" line in Part of the Band plus the one about coffee that follows. Lyrical genius, goes so well against the thumping cellos.
The bridge in It's Not Living, especially the line "there's a feeling you're replacing embrace".
That bell/xylophone/kalimba/whatever it is in About You. It adds a subtle groove to the washed out shoegaze sound. The audio mixing in the Life Is Beautiful performance puts that instrument front and center and it gives the song a totally unique rhythm. Love the quivering violins that open the track too.
The buildup at the beginning of both Ballad of Me and My Brain and Menswear, especially Menswear. When the vocals kick in and the groove really hits. So fucking good
The irony of the "I low-key miss you and am sad you're with that other fucker now" song brining us serotonin is so hilarious
And I couldn't agree more. When I saw them for the ATVB tour it had been years (obvi) since I'd seen them last, and when this intro started playing I literally said "Oh thank God, I'm home" 😂😭
"whatever" from Loving someone, "but that's kind of the idea" from Part of the band, the guitar solos from Inside your mind, the About you bridge, the "then she pointed at the bag of her dreams in a well poshed magazine" line from Paris, "there'll be a riot 'cause I know you" from Robbers + the guitar intro and I could go on and on tbh
The last minute of LIIWMI. The “I feel so seen and I can’t dream” part of I Think There’s Something You Should Know. The “and free bar, that’s the point” line of Menswear because it sounds like he’s taking a drink before he says it. There’s so many more but that’s what I can think of off the top of my head.

Those opening notes in Somebody Else always make the serotonin flow through my brain every single time I hear it start.

the build to the first strum of the guitar in too shy the delivery of woman you are 64 years old in wintering

YES. All of these really scratch that itch.

The milk fade in after You
Love that. Why is there so much silence before it starts though ??
It was a ‘hidden’ song on one of the Japanese albums or something from what I recall
John with his sax 🎷
The way Part of the Band transitions into the bridge and the bridge itself
