Album Notes & Community Reviews

Tim Kasher constructs a highly theatrical, bizarrely plotted concept album detailing the surreal conflict between separated twin brothers. The music perfectly mirrors the chaotic narrative, frantically shifting between jagged, angular post-hardcore dissonance and unsettling, carnival-esque melodies. It stands as one of the most eccentric, deeply divisive, and unapologetically ambitious projects in the veteran Omaha group's long-running catalog.
