Betty

Helmet

Surgical precision meets unexpected jazz-inflected detours. A record of high-tension grooves, metallic snare cracks, and calculated, rhythmic aggression.

It's like a math textbook thrown into a concrete mixer, but somehow you can dance to it.

A calculated, high-tension urban grind that occasionally breaks into surreal, avant-garde detours.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring, jazz-standard cover of 'Beautiful Love' that provides a surreal, lounge-inflected breather.
The mechanical, stop-start groove of 'Milquetoast' where the silence between notes feels as heavy as the riffs.
The sudden, chaotic noise-burst ending of 'Tic' that dissolves the band's usual discipline into pure feedback.
