Album Notes & Community Reviews
Dialing back the crushing, metallic heft of their earlier material, the Los Angeles instrumental collective favored a cleaner, more melodic post-rock approach for their third LP. The expansive tracks rely heavily on shimmering pedal steel guitars and interlocking melodies, creating a deeply cinematic and surprisingly optimistic sonic narrative.
