Tracks like ‘Anti-Vaxxer’, ‘Zombie World’, ‘Too Much Time’, ‘Tomorrow is Too Close to Today’ and ‘No Turning Back’ are orchestrated with dazing rock distortions alongside hypnotic grooves and wiry guitar work. The vocals are a slow burn that absorbs the evolving energies of the soundscape. It caters to the layered mind, both conceptually and sonically.

‘Poverty Queue’, ‘Valley of Tears’, ‘Don’t Preach To Me’, and ‘Van Gogh’ play out with warmer pallets, lilting instrumentals, smoother vocal lines, and effervescing blues. With melodic rock detailing, it traces the line between feel-good and melancholy ever so delicately.
‘Broken Heart’ and ‘For Hannah’ are further softened. With alt-folk concepts infused into acoustic rock makeup, it is carried by lyrical stories and sentimental vocals.
The album is available for streaming on popular sites like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music!
