Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Washington trio tightened their incredibly chaotic, hyper-technical instrumentation into a slightly more focused, melodic vision of post-hardcore. Driven by Thomas Erak's blistering fretboard tapping and desperate, shifting vocals, the album solidified their vital role in the technical rock underground.
