Album Notes & Community Reviews

Emerging from the New York hardcore scene, this intensely personal debut acts as a harrowing concept album documenting a teenager's descent into suicide. The musical backdrop masterfully integrates the devastatingly heavy, slow-motion groove of doom metal with intensely emotional, grunge-inflected vocal performances.
