It's funny, "Mirror Mirror" is the biggest hit from NIME but it's my least favorite track on the album. I'm not a huge fan overall of ANATO but "Precious Jerusalem" might be their most epic chorus ever.

Oh the little bridge before the chorus is even more majestic, gives me goosebumps every time.
I used to "hate" ANATO for a long time but now it's easily my favourite from them and every time I listen to it it gets better. It's one of a handful of albums that to this day I can sit down and do nothing but listen to the music. No multitasking. (Though I guess trying to pick out each vocal track is a very multitasking activity).

I had forgotten about that one - it was actually my favorite cut too. The chorus is indeed a banger - extremely creative. I think Mirror Mirror was the more popular track because it had an anthem quality to it. Easier to sing with your friends at a bar or a concert, while Precious Jerusalem is pretty much progressive metal.
