Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by Jesse Cannon, 'The Octopus in the Igloo' captures the raw, chaotic energy of the early post-hardcore underground scene. The band utilizes intricately woven, progressive guitar leads paired with aggressive screaming and highly melodic, anthemic clean choruses. The recording's eclectic approach laid a frantic yet atmospheric foundation that strongly resonated with early internet music communities.
