“Good Time” emerges as a testament to the band’s evolutionary sound, described by lead vocalist Matthew Shultz as unlike anything they’ve created before. The track is a dynamic blend of potent vocals and commanding instrumentation, encapsulating a sense of vibrant chaos reminiscent of a bustling street parade.
