Ariel

Abrasive industrial textures collide with the band's signature gothic atmosphere. Five tracks of high-tension, metallic rock that feels cold, heavy, and urgent.

It's like a gothic warehouse rave where the machines are starting to take over.

A relentless, confrontational energy with moments of cold, atmospheric beauty.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden shift from a rhythmic pulse to a wall of distorted guitar at the midpoint of Ariel.
The seven-minute slow burn of Lotus Eater which dissolves into a metallic, shimmering feedback loop.
The way the vocals on Trial by Fire sound like they are fighting to be heard through a mechanical storm.
