Add in starting sophomore point guard Lindsay Hallion, who missed her freshman season with a torn ACL, and the Crimson played young all season long.“I’ve never in my 24 years here played this many young kids so much,” Delaney-Smith...

For example, the slow-burning opener, “Swans (Life After Death),” follows the same sonic arc as Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven” as a subdued introduction simmers to a major key climax before burning out in an extended, guitar-wanking, minor-key conclusion.
