Hebrews

A daring experiment where orchestral strings replace every guitar. Manic, theatrical, and deeply personal, it's punk rock played by a chamber ensemble.

It's an emo record where the guitars are replaced by angry violins and it actually works.

A frantic, self-lacerating exploration of identity delivered with theatrical, string-driven urgency.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The jarring realization on track 1 that the aggressive 'riffs' are actually staccato violins and cellos.

The chaotic vocal interplay on 'Lost My Touch' where guest singers create a dizzying choir of emo royalty.

The moment the strings swell into a frantic, dissonant climax during the title track's bridge.
