A Taste for Bitters

The Hawaiian indie-rock quartet embraced an overwhelmingly bleak, dissonant sound for their third full-length release. Troy Von Balthazar's agonizingly strained, emotionally volatile vocals navigate through tense, dynamic shifts between quiet, slowcore-inspired passages and explosive post-hardcore noise. The uniquely depressive, highly literate approach garnered them a massive cult following, particularly within the European alternative scene.
