Vessels
Memphis May Fire
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it weird that I get goose bumps listening to this after listening to the first 10
songs of Challenger? All the songs lead up to this one “goodbye” moment that does not
disappoint. There might as well be credits going on during this song. It is a perfect
farewell to a perfect album. Enjoy!
