A collision of heavy metal grit and lush psychedelic pop. Dense vocal harmonies meet stadium-sized riffs in a record defined by political tension and hope.
September 15, 2017 · Roswell Records
A massive, ornate architecture of reinforced steel and distorted amplifiers defines this heavy, pop-harmonized collection. Working with pop producer Greg Kurstin, the band injects their muscular, late-2010s arena rock with dense, multi-layered vocal stacks reminiscent of 1960s pop and the complex textures of 1970s progressive rock. The resulting sound is a deliberate juxtaposition of light and shade, capturing a paranoid, politically charged atmosphere where quiet, held breaths repeatedly collide with crushing, Black Sabbath-esque riffs.
