Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded with producer Will Yip, the group's fifth album represents a transition into a more anthemic, heartland rock-inflected brand of punk. The arrangements prioritize layered guitar textures and vocal counterpoint that address the anxieties of aging within the punk community and the search for stability in one's thirties. It remains a definitive pillar of the band's catalog, prioritizing emotional depth and structural accessibility.
