Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Massachusetts quintet pioneers a shockingly bright, uniquely euphoric subgenre they self-described as 'dream thrash'. The debut album utilizes the relentless blast beats and tremolo-picked guitars of black metal, but completely removes any harsh vocals, opting entirely for soaring, angelic pop harmonies. It stands as a brilliantly optimistic, boundary-breaking experiment in extreme music.
