Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following the breakthrough success of 'Domestica', this EP finds the Omaha outfit further refining their jagged, cello-laced post-hardcore sound. 'Burst and Bloom' serves as a critical transitional release, bridging the raw emotional intensity of their earlier work with the conceptual ambition that would define their subsequent masterpieces.
