Generation Rx

A heavy, somber reflection on the opioid crisis and mental health. Dense production meets orchestral flourishes for the band's darkest, most mature statement.

It's the band's 'dark night of the soul' record about the opioid crisis, and it's surprisingly heavy.

A heavy, empathetic exploration of pain and addiction wrapped in dark, alternative rock production.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The jarring transition from the haunting title track into the explosive, drum-heavy opening of Self Help.

Sam Carter's visceral guest scream on Leech providing a moment of genuine post-hardcore aggression.

The eerie contrast of the MUSYCA Children's Choir singing alongside heavy distorted guitars on Better Demons.
