Album Notes & Community Reviews
Marking their debut on Nuclear Blast, 'Spiritual Instinct' is a more direct and cathartic album that reintegrates heavier elements into the band's sound. The record explores themes of inner turmoil and the struggle to find one's spiritual place in the modern world. It contrasts their trademark ethereal beauty with some of their most aggressive and grounded riffs, creating a work of potent emotional weight.
