Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded in an isolated studio in Iceland, the Scottish band's sophomore effort trades some of their debut's frantic energy for a darker, more expansive post-punk atmosphere. The sweeping, reverb-soaked guitars and Adam Thompson's impassioned vocals perfectly capture a sense of existential anxiety and emotional turbulence.
