Album Notes & Community Reviews

Funded entirely by fans through a highly successful crowdfunding campaign, 'Superstition' finds the Canadian outfit deepening their signature blend of shimmering synth-pop and heavy industrial rock. The album relies heavily on eerie, John Carpenter-esque synthesizer arpeggios that contrast beautifully with Chibi's ethereal, breathy vocals. The production emphasizes a moody, cinematic atmosphere heavily steeped in 1980s dark fantasy aesthetics.
