Album Notes & Community Reviews

For their final album before disbanding, the Seattle post-hardcore group enlisted Fugazi's Guy Picciotto for production, slightly reigning in their manic energy into more cohesive song structures. The dual vocal attack remains razor-sharp, delivering biting socio-political commentary over dissonant, jagged riffs. It is a fittingly volatile and abrasive conclusion to their catalog.
