Album Notes & Community Reviews

Operating as a massive, constantly rotating musical collective, the ensemble fuses chaotic, brass-heavy free jazz improvisation with furious post-hardcore aggression. The aggressively eclectic, fiercely political record tackles intense themes of systemic oppression and queer liberation, maintaining an unpredictable, highly volatile avant-garde energy.
