About the recording, the band comments: "We are trying some really unconventional techniques to get a unique sound for this record. It should go without saying that we are all in a different place mentally than when we recorded any previous material, and we feel like that is being translated well. Artwork is coming along as well, and the undercurrent for the record is evolving nicely."
The quartet - whose recent release was the split 12" with Rhode Island's TIDES on Level Plane Records - have
continued to tour North America extensively since their inception, most recently as the opening slot for fellow
statesmen and friends BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME.
