Under the Boards

Nervous, mid-tempo rock with a dry, intimate production. A psychological portrait of suburban isolation told through jagged riffs and anatomical metaphors.

It's like a panic attack you can actually groove to in your bedroom.

A tense, claustrophobic exploration of the self that feels both fragile and fiercely honest.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The title track's opening guitar line that feels like a nervous twitch turning into a groove.
The jarring, blunt lyrical delivery in 'Get Fucked Up' that cuts through the melodic backdrop.
The way 'Turning Over in My Tomb' resolves the album with a haunting, skeletal finality.
