Album Notes & Community Reviews

The band's major-label debut explores a highly produced version of their signature sound, prioritizing clarity and vocal counterpoint. Produced by Colin Brittain, the songs delve into themes of social anxiety, identity dissociation, and the mental health challenges associated with long-term touring. It reflects a shift away from their early hardcore roots toward a more sophisticated, power-pop influenced iteration of emo.
