Album Notes & Community Reviews

Driven by former Man Is the Bastard member Henry Barnes, Amps for Christ utilized custom-built instrumentation to craft their chaotic blend of genres on 'Circuits'[cite: 1]. The incredibly raw, lo-fi recording clashes delicate traditional folk melodies against abrasive noise rock and dense, overpowering electronic drones[cite: 1].
