The band’s distinct sound is instantly captivating, pulling you into a world of raw emotion and captivating melodies that linger long after the music stops.
Recorded in Provo, Utah with producer Jed Jones, the album boasts top-tier production quality, complemented by great mixing and solid mastering. Each track is meticulously crafted showcasing the band’s attention to detail, from the emotional depth of the lyrics to the polished yet heartfelt instrumentals.
