Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally conceived as an EP, the record expanded into a lush, sprawling critique of mid-2000s American culture and the band's own major-label frustrations. It dials back their signature post-hardcore aggression in favor of dense orchestral arrangements, pianos, and progressive rock ambitions.
