Now, band announce their signing with DAZE and the forthcoming EP out October 2nd. Across the five tracks, the six member band push the limits of dynamics into a unique, crushing sound. Single is out today, starts with distinctive electronic synth that becomes enveloped by monstrous riffs that lead into the feverish track. Growling vocals preside over metallic guitars and haunting melodies, building up to a devastating breakdown. Vocalist Brenden Riker details on the tracks lyrics:

“This song is about a reflection on a discarded friendship. I wanted to relay the feelings and paint scenes by describing certain moments that can be seen as lonely, desolate, and painful to process. In the end you’ll always find yourself.”
