Album Notes & Community Reviews

Entirely self-produced and independently released, the Australian group's sixth album is a remarkably cohesive fusion of aggressive djent and heavy electronic dance music. The record leans fully into a dark, futuristic cyber-metal atmosphere, utilizing pulsing synthesizers and devastating breakdowns to explore vocalist Marcus Bridge's intense personal anxieties.
