Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Shrines' defines the "future pop" sound of the early 2010s, blending trap-influenced percussion with ethereal, pitch-shifted vocals and side-chained synths. The lyrics are often macabre and visceral, contrasting sharply with the polished, glittering production. It is a unique fusion of the grotesque and the beautiful.
