Album Notes & Community Reviews

A deeply influential and somewhat overlooked gem of the early-2000s underground, 'The Return to Melancholy' was released via Eulogy Recordings. The Florida band crafts a uniquely chaotic and emotionally devastating sound, violently colliding the lovesick, shrieking catharsis of 90s screamo with the blast beats, punishing breakdowns, and frostbitten atmosphere of melodic black metal.
