5AM

Cinematic indie rock defined by haunting vocal harmonies and slow-burning emotional swells. A lush, reverb-soaked record for the quiet hours of the early morning.

It's the perfect soundtrack for when you're the only person awake and everything feels a little too quiet.

A heavy, cinematic yearning that feels like watching a sunrise through a cold window.

Moments Worth Waiting For

the massive wall of vocal harmonies that erupts during the final chorus of Spark

the transition from the sparse piano of the title track into the rhythmic pulse of Just My Soul Responding

the way Shiver builds from a delicate whisper into a crashing wave of distorted guitars
