Announce new album ‘…Beginning Of The End’, a curious title for a band that has treated each release like a new creative start…

…constantly reinventing themselves since their inception less than a decade ago. LP embraces both the groove and avant garde, revisiting the raw, teeth-gnashing intensity of their previous work while toying with nu-metal, alternative rock, trip hop, dark ambient and other disparate influences. The latest effort feels like a band that has traversed every shadowy corner of heavy music, distilling their decade of innovation and knowledge into a singular show of force. Band share their first preview with lead singles ‘Ecstasy’ and ‘Human Terror’ which together capture the album’s dynamic, expansive direction. Both are available across streaming platforms via Run For Cover alongside a classic, sinister video for ‘Ecstasy’, directed by Craig Murray, and a visualizer for ‘Human Terror’.

Throughout the years, the revered Austin trio have toured the world over, creating their own musical eco-system and released three seminal full-length albums, they have done it in a manner that avoided compromise, welcomed free experimentation and avoided labels outside of “menacing,” “compelling” and “must hear.” New release was recorded and mixed by Phillip Odom between March-June 2025 with mastering handled by Will Yip. It’s band’s fourth studio album in eight years, and third with Run For Cover. Album artwork by Collin Fletcher.
