Album Notes & Community Reviews

The final studio project from the long-running Washington D.C. ensemble chronicles their complete evolution far beyond simple hardcore constraints. Driven by John Stabb's versatile vocals and J. Robbins's sharp guitar work, the album embraces complex post-hardcore and textured alternative rock sensibilities. It stands as a highly respected, mature epitaph for one of the capital's most durable independent punk outfits.
