Album Notes & Community Reviews

Transitioning to a major label, the Washington D.C. post-hardcore outfit heavily augmented their signature dual-bass assault with prominent electronic programming. The resulting album leans heavily into dark, repetitive alternative dance rhythms and slick industrial rock textures, presenting a polished but distinctly paranoid urban aesthetic.
