Album Notes & Community Reviews

Often referred to as the 'Silver' album due to its metallic cover, this debut introduced a uniquely heavy, guitar-driven iteration of shoegaze to the American independent scene. Helmed by Jason Martin, the project contrasted crushing, down-tuned riffs with whisper-quiet, melodic vocals, heavily influencing the intersection of alternative metal and dream pop.
