There Is Nothing Left to Lose

A warm, melody-focused pivot recorded in a Virginia basement. Less about the scream and more about the shimmer, it captures a band finding their collective breath.

A sun-drenched, relaxed warmth replaces the tense aggression of the past as the newly formed trio retreats to a basement in Virginia. Trading massive walls of distortion for clean, slightly overdriven guitars and intricate vocal harmonies, the record lets its melodies drift and breathe with a patient, suburban ease. It is a sophisticated, melody-focused collection that trades stadium-sized post-grunge shouting for a comfortable, organic groove.
