Album Notes & Community Reviews

On their debut full-length, the Toronto punks stretch the genre's boundaries with unusually long song structures and expansive, multi-layered guitar arrangements. Damian Abraham's visceral screaming is contrasted against ambitious, almost triumphant melodies, setting the stage for their future conceptual rock operas. It rapidly established them as one of the most forward-thinking bands in modern hardcore.
