Primary Colours

A massive pivot from garage-punk to sprawling, reverb-drenched shoegaze. Dense walls of guitar and vintage synths create a dark, neon-lit masterpiece.

It's like Joy Division and My Bloody Valentine had a baby in a very dark, very loud basement.

A dark, immersive descent into neon-lit shadows and shimmering noise.

Sea Within a Sea

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden transition from motorik post-punk to a shimmering synth-pop odyssey in the final four minutes of Sea Within a Sea.
The way the guitars on Mirror's Image sound like a swarm of bees vibrating inside a cathedral.
The relentless, driving bassline of Who Can Say that anchors the swirling psychedelic chaos above it.
