Imbue

Thick, distorted guitar layers and strained, gritty vocals. A heavy and restless evolution of the band's suburban emo roots into a darker, more muscular rock sound.

It's like their early emo stuff grew up, got a much heavier guitar amp, and started worrying about the digital age.

A restless and muscular exploration of suburban anxiety and existential weight.
