Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released for free over the internet after Virgin Records refused to put it out, this sequel features a significantly rougher, lo-fi mix compared to its predecessor. The recordings capture the band in their final days before their initial breakup, leaning heavily into shoegaze textures and raw noise-rock energy.
