Rub Some Dirt On It

Recorded live to capture a raw, unpolished energy. Interlocking vocal harmonies meet jagged riffs in a defiant exploration of faith and frustration.

It sounds like a post-hardcore band decided to record a 70s rock record in a basement and then screamed their way through a mid-life crisis.

A confrontational and raw exploration of faith and frustration delivered with live-room intensity.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden transition from the melodic piano intro of track 1 into a jagged, dissonant guitar riff.
The way the dual vocals weave in and out of each other during the frantic bridge of 'Enemy'.
The five-minute slow burn of 'Stranger' that culminates in a massive, wall-of-sound emotional release.
