Album Notes & Community Reviews

Emerging from the midwestern underground, the trio crafted a distinctly atmospheric and moody sound that contrasted sharply with typical regional punk scenes. The production emphasizes driving basslines and shimmering guitar textures, creating an immersive, frostbitten aesthetic. It stands as an enduring cult classic of independent eighties guitar music.
